This week the 35th matchday of the Premier League is being played, in which Manchester United will have to beat one of the teams that has taken the fewest points from the lower middle zone of the table in recent months, and Burnley arrives with a low state of form. For their part, Erik Ten Hag's men are sixth but very close to their pursuers, so failure to take the three points could mean losing places in the standings and, therefore, options to play in Europe.
Below we leave you with the possible Manchester United lineup for this match:
BY: ONANA – Onana is a goalkeeper who stands out for his ability to quickly leave his area and close angles, as well as his ability to play with his feet and participate in the construction of the game from the defensive zone, something highly sought after by Ten Hag. He is being highly criticized for his performance this season, conceding many goals per game and giving little security, although in recent games he is more settled and with greater confidence.
LD: DALOT – In recent times the Portuguese full-back has alternated starts and substitutes, but given the numerous losses in the full-back positions, he is not only starting, but sometimes has to play with a changed leg, although in this match it seems that it will be the departure from its natural zone.

DFC: MAGUIRE – New opportunity for the English center back given the many casualties that Ten Hag has in that defensive zone. The defender has improved his level a little in recent games, and, although he does not convey a great feeling of confidence, his contribution will be important in this clash in which he alone is worth the victory.
DFC: KAMBWALA – The young 19-year-old French defender is playing more minutes than he would have thought at the beginning of the season due to the numerous problems the team has in that defensive zone. The truth is that the player, despite his youth and lack of experience, is not doing badly at all, and the club looks optimistically to the future in that he can be a defender for many years.
LI: WAN-BISSAKA – It seems that the English full-back is Ten Hag's preferred option to cover this left wing in the absence of all the left-backs he has in the squad. Despite it not being his natural position, the player did not do badly in the previous match, and everything indicates that he could repeat for this duel against Burnley.
MC: CASEMIRO – The Brazilian has been very irregular throughout the season. Even so, Ten Hag maintains confidence in him and in this duel he should be in the game in search of three key points for those at Old Trafford.
MC: MAINOO – The very young English midfielder, only 18 years old, has made a place for himself in the eleven this season, and despite having some errors typical of his age, Ten Hag continues to trust him, so it is most likely that he will be in the game in this time together with Casemiro in the center of the field.
EI: GARNACHO – The Argentine seems indisputable for Ten Hag in the starting lineups, and his good performances since last season have earned him a place in the eleven, given his skill and ability to create dangerous situations.
MCO: BRUNO FERNANDES – The Portuguese is a creative midfielder with vision of the game. He stands out for his ability to create scoring opportunities with precise passes and long-distance shots. He has six goals and six assists in the Premier League, numbers that are far from those of other seasons, which demonstrates the drop in performance of good old Bruno compared to other years. Even so, he remains a fundamental piece in Ten Hag's schemes.
ED: ANTONY – The talented Brazilian winger is not going through his best season, although he is a constant danger for rivals, so everything indicates that Ten Hag will continue to count on him in this important duel to maintain European competition positions.
DC: HOJLUND – Recently returned from injury, his contribution will be key in this decisive stretch of the season. The Danish striker has eight goals in the Premier League, figures that are not very high, although the player seems to be becoming more and more acclimatized to the team and could increase those scoring figures in the coming games.
This is what the formation would look like (1-4-2-3-1)
Goalie: Onana
Defenses: Dalot, Kambwala, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka
Midfielders: Casemiro, Mainoo
Midfielders: Garnacho, Bruno Fernandes, Rashford
Forward: Hojlund
