Confirmed Man United XI vs Wolves: Amorim makes one change with Zirkzee dropped, De Ligt still out

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has named his starting line-up for today’s Premier League clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium.

Man United had to share the spoils in the previous league encounter against West Ham United.

They will be eager to take three points against Wolves who are rock bottom in the Premier League table with just two points.

Amorim has made only one change to his United XI today.

Senne Lammens retains his starting spot between the sticks.

He has a glorious opportunity to earn his second clean sheet in a United shirt.

Ayden Heaven continues to be at the heart of the back three, despite a nervy performance against the Hammers.

It is a major surprise to see Matthijs de Ligt still out of the squad, with Amorim suggesting earlier that the Dutchman could be fit for this game.

Noussair Mazraoui and Luke Shaw will partner Heaven at the back.

Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot continue in the wing-back spots.

Dalot scored a goal against the Hammers but had to be taken off due to an injury scare.

Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes start in the midfield again.

Casemiro has played 90 minutes in the last two encounters.

Many thought it would be a perfect clash to give Kobbie Mainoo an opportunity.

However, Amorim continues with his baffling decision to keep the 20-year-old on the bench.

Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo start behind Mason Mount in the final third.

Mount replaces Joshua Zirkzee and is expected to play in a false nine role.

Confirmed Man United line-up (3-4-2-1): Senne Lammens; Noussair Mazraoui, Ayden Heaven, Luke Shaw; Amad Diallo, Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Dalot; Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha; Mason Mount
