Manchester United are boosted tomorrow by the return of Antony to the first team squad against Galatasaray. The Brazilian has returned from enforced leave due to allegations against him. He is available for selection for tomorrow’s game.
Lisandro Martinez however will not be. The Argentine had surgery on a metatarsal injury sustained last season before the new season began, but it has not healed. The defender must undergo another surgery.
United have no fresh injury concerns for the game against Galatasaray.
Manchester United Team News:
With Antony back, it’s likely he starts ahead of Facundo Pellistri on the right. Harry Maguire could come back into the line-up ahead of Victor Lindelof. Sergio Reguilon remains sidelined, so Sofyan Amrabat may be asked to start at left-back again.
In midfield, Mason Mount, Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro are likely to start again. There could be changes up front however, with Anthony Martial possibly getting a game ahead of Rasmus Hojlund.
Andre Onana is expected to start in net, although Erik ten Hag spoke today about giving Altay Bayindir a chance in the games ahead.
Galatasaray Team News:
For Galatasaray, the only player confirmed out of the squad is 20-year old Kazimcan Karatas (knee). Hakim Ziyech was not available at the weekend for the Turkish side, but there is a chance he plays tomorrow.
Galatasaray are unbeaten in 14 games in all competitions. They sit second in the Turkish League after 7 games, behind Fenerbache who have won every single game.
Predicted Line-Ups:
Manchester United: Onana, Dalot, Varane, Maguire, Amrabat, Casemiro, Mount, Fernandes, Rashford, Antony, Martial.
Galatasaray: Muslera, Boey, Sanchez, Ayhan, Angelino, Torreira, Demirbay, Akturkoglu, Tete, Zaha, Icardi.
