Man United vs Southampton Team news :
Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen, two Man United midfielders, are continuing their lengthy recovery from injuries to their knees and ankles, respectively. Anthony Martial, who is recovering from a hip injury but is unlikely to be considered for selection from the start of the game, is back in full training.
Ten Hag must also assess Marcel Sabitzer’s fitness, who missed Betis because of a knock. Given that his team has less than 72 hours to recover, it wouldn’t be surprising if the hosting manager made a few adjustments.
After redeeming himself on Thursday night, Fernandes will continue to wear the captain’s armband unless Harry Maguire makes a rare start. Tyrell Malacia and Aaron Wan-Bissaka both have the potential to disrupt the harmony in the full-back areas.
Meanwhile, Alcaraz’s knee injury, which he sustained during a knee-slide celebration in the 50th minute of Leicester’s match, was quickly downplayed by Southampton manager Selles, and the 20-year-old should be fit enough to play in this match.
Valentino Livramento and Juan Larios would be the only injury absentees for the visitors if Alcaraz returned quickly, and Selles should see no reason to change the team that defeated a shot-shy Leicester.
