Preview: Manchester United vs West Bromwich Albion

Preview: Manchester United vs West Bromwich Albion 

Match Preview

An extremely inconsistent Manchester United will look forward to their first league win at Old Trafford in 2020-21 season when they host West Brom on 21st November 2020.

Having bagged just 1 point out of possible 10 points, Manchester United will face a team struggling and currently in the relegation zone.

Manchester United beat Everton 3-1 just before the International break, whereas West Brom is coming from a well-fought defeat against Tottenham. Ole is under extreme pressure to perform as any loss in points will question his position as Manager of Manchester United. West Brom will look to sit back and wait for the counter-attacks. West Brom was well organized till 90 minutes when Harry Kane finally broke the shackles. Man Utd should expect the same approach from West Brom.



Ole has struggled to find spaces against a defensive side. Home form of Manchester United is another thing to worry for Ole. The defence was in shambles till Tottenham game but now things are settling in slowly and gradually, a certain positive note for Ole.

Baggies will look forward to change their fortunes. Slaven Bilic will be happy to see Red Devils at Old Trafford considering their home form. But he has his own issues failing to create goals in the final third. 

Martial will need to undergo a fitness test. He had back problem while training with France team, whereas Cavani would need to undergo Covid test after his several Uruguan teammates and staff turned Covid Positive. 

Ole confirmed Martial is fit.

West Brom will be delighted to have Ivanovic and Pereira back in contention for the game.

Manchester United Premier League form: WLWDLW
West Bromwich Albion Premier League form: DLDDLL

Possible Lineups:

Manchester United: De Gea, Wan Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles, Fred, Pogba, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial, Mata

West Bromwich Albion: Johnstone, Furling, Ivanovic, Bartley, O'Shea, Townsend, Gallagher, Livermore, Krovinovic, Pereira, Grant
