Should Rashford Be Rested Against Spurs? – See The 2 Ways United Could Line Up Here

Manchester United could be looking to pocket the whole three points in the big game this Sunday, but the lingering issue is whether star forward Marcus Rashford be rested.

With lots of options available to the Red Devils, we have predicted these two ways United could line up against Tottenham Hotspur this Sunday.

Option 1: Marcus Rashford To Start But Is Substituted

Possible XI in this option: De Gea; Shaw, Lindelof, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka; Fred, Pogba, McTominay, Fernandes; Rashford, Greenwood.

Solskjaer could start Marcus Rashford, who is still injured, and take him off after half-time as he did against Granada. It paid off on that day, with the 23-year-old scoring the opening goal of that game.

Elsewhere, Scott McTominay could play in the midfield as he’s suspended for the second leg game against Granada next week.

While the backline remains the same, which we could as well see David de Gea return to the goal after a clean sheet against Granada.

Option 2: Rasford To Be Rested

Possible XI in this option: Henderson; Shaw, Lindelof, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka; McTominay, Van de Beek, Fernandes; Pogba, Cavani, Greenwood.

Should Marcus Rashford not feature in the XI, Paul Pogba could feature on the left-wing, having impressed on that position on a number of occasions this season.

With that, a slot could be opened up in the midfield for Van de Beek, who could actually use the game time.
