Manchester United Team News & Preview

Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw against Everton earlier this week and Jose Mourinho’s men cannot afford to drop more points if they want a top-four finish.

Smalling, Jones, Mata, Rooney and Young are set to miss the trip to Sunderland.

Predicted Manchester United Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Valencia, Bailly, Rojo, Blind; Herrera, Carrick; Martial, Pogba, Mkhitaryan; Ibrahimovic
