Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Manchester United could line up for Thursday's Europa League Group E clash with Sheriff Tiraspol.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag could revert to his strongest lineup for Thursday's Europa League clash at Sheriff Tiraspol in Group E.

An altered Red Devils XI fell to a 1-0 loss to Real Sociedad last week, but Ten Hag has seen two of his side's Premier League games postponed in the wake of Queen Elizabeth II's death.

The visitors are once again working without Facundo Pellistri and Brandon Williams, while Donny van de Beek, Marcus Rashford, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Martin Dubravka and Anthony Martial have not made the trip either.

Martial's Achilles problem is still giving him some grief, so Cristiano Ronaldo could once again lead the line with Rashford also out of contention. Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes are poised to displace Anthony Elanga and Fred respectively, with Antony holding his place on the right.

Casemiro also found it difficult to make his mark at Old Trafford last week, so the midfield pairing of Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay may be preferred from the off in Moldova.

Lisandro Martinez's controversial handball allowed Sociedad's Brais Mendez to convert the decisive penalty on matchday one, but the Argentine could come back in to join arms with Raphael Varane as Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire make way.

Even if Luke Shaw is passed fit for the contest, Tyrell Malacia is doing enough to hold his place on the left, while Diogo Dalot and David de Gea ought to complete the backline.

Man United possible starting lineup: De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia; Eriksen, McTominay; Antony, Fernandes, Sancho; Ronaldo
