Alejandro Garnacho and Antony start as Manchester United fans pick their line-up vs Wolves

Manchester United could be without Marcus Rashford for the visit of Wolves this afternoon and Reds fans have called for Alejandro Garnacho to return in his place.

United welcome Wolves to Old Trafford knowing they must win to revive their Premier League top-four push. Consecutive away defeats have allowed Liverpool to close the gap to just one point, albeit having played a game more than Erik ten Hag's side.

In Wolves, they face a side who last week secured a 1-0 win over Aston Villa. Manager Julen Lopetegui hinted in his pre-game press conference that he could make a few changes as he begins to plan for next season.

For United, Ten Hag has confirmed that Rashford is a "big question mark" for the game. The Reds forward has picked up a leg injury and supporters have called for Garnacho to come into the side as his replacement.

The 18-year-old has been out since the draw with Southampton in April, but was in the matchday squad at the London Stadium and could return to action this afternoon. United fans have opted for a mobile front three, with Garnacho and Brazilian Antony either side of Anthony Martial.

The midfield three of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes saw their 21-game unbeaten run when starting together ended at West Ham on Sunday, but supporters have decided to keep the trio together for the visit of Wolves.

One positive piece of injury news to come from Ten Hag's press conference is the return of Raphael Varane, who has been unavailable since the Europa League quarter-final first-leg draw against Sevilla. Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw have formed a solid makeshift partnership at centre-back, but fans have moved the latter out to left-back, bringing Varane straight back in.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Diogo Dalot continue to battle for first-team football, with fans backing the former to start against Wolves with David de Gea in goal.
