MUN vs BAR Dream11 prediction, Europa League: Manchester United vs Barcelona predicted line-up, injury update

The
first
leg
saw
Barcelona
concede
a
1-0
lead
to
go
2-1
down
before
Raphinha
levelled
the
score
in
the
76th
minute
of
the
match.
Marcos
Alonso
opened
the
scoring
in
the
50th
minute
before
Marcus
Rashford
restored
parity
two
minutes
later.

An
own
goal
from
Jules
Kounde
gave
United
the
lead
before
Raphinha
forced
the
game
to
go
to
Old
Trafford
on
level
terms.

Manchester

vs
Barcelona
injury
update,
suspension
update

Manchester
United
injury
update
vs
Barcelona

Anthony
Martial
is
unavailable
for
the
game
for
Manchester
United
with
a
hip
injury
while
Harry
Maguire
and
Antony
are
expected
to
be
available
for
selection.
Manchester
United’s
squad
will
be
further
strengthened
for
the
game
as
Lisandro
Martinez
and
Marcel
Sabitzer
returned
to
the
squad
after
missing
out
on
the
first
leg
due
to
suspension.

Marcus
Rashford
will
certainly
start
as
the
lone
forward
as
the
Englishman
scored
six
goals
in
five
games.
Rashford
has
been
going
through
a
purple
patch
with
six
goals
in
five
games,
including
a
brace
against
Leicester
at
the
weekend.

Jadon
Sancho
is
also
entering
the
game
scoring
a
goal
at
the
weekend
and
has
been
a
creative
outlet
from
the
left
flank.
Bruno
Fernandes
has
been
the
mainstay
of
creativity
from
the
right
flank
with
11
assists
to
his
name
in
all
competitions.
The
Portuguese,
who
featured
in
the
World
Cup
as
well,
has
been
potent
in
front
of
the
net
too
with
10
goals.

The
midfield
is
expected
to
consist
of
Fred,
Wout
Weghorst,
and
Casemiro.
Weghorst
is
known
for
providing
defensive
stability
by
tracking
back
to
help
pivot
Casemiro,
who
has
been
the
mainstay
of
Manchester
united
at
the
middle
of
the
park.
Fred
is
a
box-to-box
presence
and
is
good
at
breaking
attacks
and
helping
the
team
in
transition.

Raphael
Varane,
Harry
Maguire,
Wan
Bissaka,
and
Luke
Shaw
are
expected
to
form
the
back
four
as
coach
Ten
Hag
is
confident
of
Maguire’s
return.

David
de
Gea
will
be
guarding
the
goal
and
has
been
in
good
form
of
late
but
did
concede
twice
in
the
first
leg
while
his
effort
in
the
Raphinha
goal
was
questionable.

Barcelona
injury
and
suspension
update
vs
Manchester
United

Barcelona,
on
the
other
hand,
will
play
the
game
without
Pedri
and
Gavi.
Gavi
is
suspended
for
the
tie
for
yellow
card
accumulation
while
Pedri
is
down
with
a
hamstring
injury.
Ousmane
Dembele
is
also
out
with
a
thigh
injury.

Coach
Xavi
Hernandez
has
also
shown
concern
over
the
fitness
of
Robert
Lewandowski
and
Frenkie
de
Jong
for
the
game.

However,
Sergio
Busquets
is
expected
to
return
from
his
ankle
injury
while
Ronald
Araujo
is
also
back
in
the
squad
after
serving
a
game
suspension.

The
return
of
Busquets
means
he
will
sit
behind
Frenkie
de
Jong
and
Franck
Kessie
in
Barcelona’s
familiar
three-man
midfield.
De
Jong
has
been
key
to
Barcelona’s
midfield
functioning
as
he
allows
the
ball
movement
through
the
midfield
of
the
park.
His
defensive
fallacies
are
covered
by
Busquets,
who
makes
more
than
three
tackles
and
interceptions
per
game.

Franck
Kessie
is
a
towering
presence
in
the
midfield
and
good
at
using
his
strength
to
dribble
to
midfield
and
has
adapted
well
to
the
short-pass
football
at
Barcelona.

Ansu
Fati
is
expected
to
start
on
the
left
flank
but
may
face
a
threat
from
Ferran
Torres
for
the
spot
as
the
former
Manchester
City
winger
impressed
against
Cadiz
in
LaLiga
at
the
weekend.
Robert
Lewandowski
is
confirmed
to
start
at
the
front
with
Raphinha
in
his
support
from
the
right.

Lewandowski
may
have
failed
to
score
against
United
in
the
first
leg
but
the
Polish
has
scored
twice
this
month.
The
latest
goal
came
last
weekend
against
Cadiz
in
a
2-0
win
and
added
to
his
24-goal
tally
for
the
season
with
Barcelona.

Raphinha
has
been
in
good
form
with
three
goals,
including
the
first-leg
goal,
and
two
assists
to
his
name
in
February
and
is
a
threat
from
direct
freekicks
as
well.
The
Brazilian
was
kept
fresh
for
the
game
by
Xavi,
who
gave
him
16
minutes
against
Cadiz.

The
back
four
is
expected
to
have
Marcos
Alonso
and
Jules
Kounde
in
the
centre
with
Jordi
Alba
and
Ronald
Araujo
on
either
side.
Alonso
and
Kounde
have
fit
in
well
in
playing
the
ball
out
from
the
back
while
Jordi
Alba
now
enjoys
the
role
of
a
leader
from
the
back
and
is
a
certain
threat
from
the
left
flank.

Ronaldo
Araujo
provides
a
strong
physical
presence
at
the
back
and
hs
been
good
at
breaking
attacks
and
maintain
position
at
the
back
with
timely
attacks
from
the
right.

Goalkeeper
Marc
Andre
Ter
Stegen
will
have
to
be
on
his
toes
for
the
game
in
a
chaotic
atmosphere.
His
role
on
the
night
could
be
crucial
as
Barcelona
defense
is
not
always
water-tight,
especially
on
the
attack-to-defense
transition.
