Manchester United Confirmed Lineup vs Lyon for Europa League Tie
Manchester United Team News
Andre Onana is in goal as expected. Leny Yoro partners Harry Maguire and Noussair Mazraoui in the back three. Diogo Dalot and Patrick Dorgu feature at wing back with a midfield pairing of Manuel Ugarte and Casemiro. Alejandro Garnacho and Bruno Fernandes supports Rasmus Hojlund up front.
Notable Changes
After managing 0-0 draw with Manchester City the manager has opted to go with the exact same eleven in the same setup. Maybe he’s looking for consistency in the approach with the players possible gelling after some time under the coach. Whether this is a good move or one that leaves the squad looking leggy remains to be seen, this will either be a good idea from Ruben Amorim or one that puts them behind in the tie.
