Manchester United Face Bottom-Placed Sheffield United in Premier League Return

Manchester United will return to Premier League action with a home match against last-placed Sheffield United, aiming for a more straightforward victory than their recent FA Cup semi-final. United had a commanding 3-0 lead against Coventry in the FA Cup semi-final, but Coventry staged a late rally, forcing the match into a penalty shootout. Erik ten Hag’s team ultimately advanced to the FA Cup final, where they will face rivals Manchester City. However, they will be aiming to build on that victory with three points against Sheffield United, a team battling relegation. Sheffield United has a daunting task ahead of them as they fight for survival. Manchester United is dealing with an extensive injury list, which could hinder Ten Hag’s team selection. Key players such as Sofyan Amrabat, Scott McTominay, Marcus Rashford, and several others could miss the match. Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder is also expected to have some absentees, with Jack Robinson, Rhian Brewster, and others listed as doubtful.
