The Manchester United lineup that should start against Tottenham Hotspur

Manchester United return to domestic action on Sunday afternoon as they travel to London to take on Jose Mourinho's Tottenham Hotspur.

The hosts have been in rocky form of late but bounced back well to beat Aston Villa 2-0 after a humiliating Europa League exit to Dinamo Zagreb last month. Spurs have since drawn 2-2 at Newcastle, leaving them sixth and three points off West Ham in fourth place.

United on the other hand, look well placed to qualify for the Champions League as they sit second in the table and are currently nine points clear of fifth place. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men are unbeaten in ten Premier League games, although five wins and five draws shows some inconsistency. The Red Devils are fresh from a successful (and, ermmm, eventful) trip to Granada where they beat their hosts 2-0 in the first leg of their Europa League quarter final, and were briefly interrupted by 'celebrity nudist' Olmo Garcia.

While their trip to Spurs may not deliver that kind of excitement, it should still be an intriguing tie. And here's the Manchester United lineup that should start it.

1. Goalkeeper & Defenders

Dean Henderson (GK) - David De Gea started in midweek, but Henderson has proved a worthy first choice shot stopper with 12 clean sheets in 20 games.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka (RB) - Has enjoyed a decent season thus far, making the more tackles in the Premier League than any other United player this campaign.

Victor Lindelof (CB) - Has performed well recently, and even bagged an assist against Granada last time out. Clearly the first choice to partner the captain at the back.

Harry Maguire (CB) - The England man has had a very good season so far and will captain the side this weekend.

Luke Shaw (LB) - A standout performer for the majority of the season and has become crucial to United. Hasn't missed a Premier League game since mid-December.

2. Midfielders

Fred (CM) - Didn't feature in the Europa League on Thursday, but may come back into the side in place of Paul Pogba to provide some cover for the back four.

Scott McTominay (CM) - Enjoying a fantastic season at Old Trafford, having already notched seven goals in all competition from midfield.

Bruno Fernandes (AM) - On his day, the Portugal international can decide a match himself. His astonishing United form continues, having bagged 24 goals and 13 assists so far this campaign.

3. Forwards

Daniel James (RW) - Taking his opportunities in the starting XI really well and, although he hasn't scored since late February, deserves to keep his place in the lineup.

Mason Greenwood (ST) - With Martial expected to be out for quite a while, Greenwood has a huge chance to secure this spot. With just two league goals to his name this season, he needs to start stepping up.

Marcus Rashford (LW) - Scored his 20th goal of the season on Thursday night and poses a real threat to anyone when he's in the mood. Can be crucial for Solskjaer's side.
