Sports Mole looks at how Manchester United could line up in Sunday's Premier League clash with Fulham.

Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag is expected to make changes to his starting side for Sunday's Premier League clash with Fulham at Old Trafford.

The 20-time English champions secured a top-four position in the Premier League table on Thursday evening courtesy of a 4-1 success over Chelsea, and they will now be aiming to finish above Newcastle United in third.

The victory over Frank Lampard's side came at a cost, though, with Antony suffering what appeared to be a serious ankle injury, while Luke Shaw picked up a back issue.

Shaw's problem is believed to be minor, but he is unlikely to be risked here, while Antony is almost certain to miss out, with Man United currently assessing the damage to the Brazilian.

The hosts will definitely again be without Lisandro Martinez, Donny van de Beek and Marcel Sabitzer, while Tom Heaton remains a doubt due to an ankle issue.

Ten Hag is likely to shuffle his pack, with the FA Cup final against Manchester City to come next weekend, so Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Tyrell Malacia and Scott McTominay could come into the side.

The match could mark Maguire's final Old Trafford appearance for the Red Devils, as the club captain continues to be heavily linked with a summer transfer.

Marcus Rashford made his return from injury and illness as a substitute against Chelsea, and the team's leading goalscorer should now be brought into the starting side on Sunday.

Manchester United possible starting lineup: De Gea; Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Malacia; Fernandes, Casemiro, McTominay; Sancho, Martial, Rashford
