The weekend saw Manchester United lose to Arsenal, although it’s the injury blows to Rasmus Hojlund and then Leny Yoro which will have left the club frustrated rather than the game.
Both players exited in the first half – but on a bright note, the performance in the opening 15-20 minutes was excellent, although the lack of Hojlund was detrimental.
These performances and also the emergence of two academy players who are now proving themselves as ready for first-team football will have Erik ten Hag delighted.
Here’s how we think United will line up for the game.
How Manchester United could lineup vs Real Betis
It’s the second game of United’s tour of America, and after losing to Arsenal, Ten Hag will be desperate for his team to capitalise on the solid signs displayed so far during pre-season and win.
Injuries will play a part in the selection decisions from the manager, so here is how we think Manchester United could line up against Betis.
imminently and in pre-season so far he’s proven why.
Excellent in possession against Arsenal, Amass linked up well down the left and his ball control and passing offer a lot to United.
He has things to learn defensively, with the first Arsenal goal being his fault – although it was offside – but he seems to be a fast learner and we expect to see him start again.
Casemiro
Heading into this summer, Casemiro’s exit looked all but assured however it now seems like he’ll be staying.
No interest has emerged yet for him beyond rumours and for Casemiro another year could beckon at United.
Due to a lack of options, he will probably start, but he needs to improve or fans will soon grow weary of him once again.
Toby Collyer
Similar to Amass, Toby Collyer has made himself too valuable not to play through pre-season thus far and therefore he should start against Betis.
