Man Utd team news: Predicted XI vs Bayern Munich with two players punished by Erik ten Hag


Goalkeeper – Onana

It’s no overstatement to suggest that United would likely have secured progression into the last 16 by now if not for Andre Onana’s howlers in Europe.

But Ten Hag has kept his faith in the Cameroon goalkeeper, and he will need him to be a hero if United are to consider this daunting week a success.

Defence – Dalot, Maguire, Evans, Shaw

Ten Hag can’t leave his defence unchanged after shipping three goals at home to Bournemouth, and it’s unlikely he will.

Diogo Dalot seems to have restored his status as first-choice right-back, with Harry Maguire likely to start ahead of Raphael Varane again.

Sergio Reguilon was poor at the weekend, so he could be the one to drop out, with Luke Shaw pushing back over to left-back.

Jonny Evans played 15 minutes at the end of the Bournemouth defeat and may reignite his partnership with Maguire.

Midfield – Amrabat, McTominay, Fernandes

Casemiro, Mason Mount and Christian Eriksen’s continued absences leave Ten Hag’s senior options thin.

Ten Hag cited Sofyan Amrabat’s experience as the reason he started over Kobbie Mainoo in the 3-3 draw at Galatasaray. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him start again against Bayern.

Scott McTominay held the pre-match press conference next to the Dutch boss, suggesting he will keep his place in midfield.

And captain Bruno Fernandes is more of a banker than usual, considering his late yellow card against Bournemouth has ruled him out of the weekend’s trip to Liverpool.
