[3-4-2-1]: Yoro, Mount and Mainoo returns- Man United’s predicted lineups against POAK as Ruud van Nistelrooy names a dangerous starting XI against POAK
As Manchester United fans eagerly anticipate the arrival of Ruben Amorim, there are still two more games to sit through before the new man starts a new era at Old Trafford.
Man United vs PAOK predicted lineups
Man United (4-2-3-1): Onana; Mazraoui, Martinez, De Ligt, Dalot; Ugarte, Casemiro; Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee
PAOK (4-2-3-1): Kotarski; Jonny, Kedziora, Colley, Baba; Camara, Schwab; Despodov, Zivkovic, Taison; Thomas
Red Devils legend Ruud van Nistelrooy will again take interim charge of the team, as they face Greek outfit PAOK on Thursday evening in the Europa League (8pm kick-off, live on TNT Sports 2).
Neither team has secured a win yet in this season’s European campaign and we feel a positive result in Manchester could kick-start their hopes of qualification.
Players have plenty to prove to Amorim
A 4-1 win for Sporting CP over Manchester City in Tuesday’s Champions League clash, will have heightened the expectation that Amorim can turn around Man United’s fortunes.
It’s been 11 years since the Red Devils last won the Premier League title and many feel a big overhaul is needed to establish themselves as European giants again.
In the meantime, the current crop of players could be playing for their futures at Old Trafford, with the new man watching on from afar.
Amorim is likely to give everyone a clean slate, but he will be closely monitoring what the Man United squad is showing before he starts his work on the training ground.
One plus for the new head coach is the return to goalscoring form of his fellow countryman, Bruno Fernandes.
