Man Utd predicted lineup vs Newcastle

Manchester United are aiming to win their first trophy since 2017 when they take on Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.

The Red Devils' last piece of silverware came when Jose Mourinho's men beat Ajax in the Europa League final in Stockholm six years ago.

Erik ten Hag has done a marvellous job in his first season so far at Old Trafford, and a trophy would really prove that they're moving in the right direction.

Here's who he could select to start at Wembley.

On this week's edition of TFP, Chelsea legend Joe Cole joins Harry Symeou, Grizz Khan, Scott Saunders and Hunter Godson to discuss all the UEFA Champions League action from midweek, as well as look ahead to this weekend's biggest fixtures.

Man Utd predicted lineup vs Newcastle - Carabao Cup final

GK: David de Gea - Interesting bit of trivia: De Gea did not start that Europa League final in 2017, Sergio Romero did instead.

RB: Diogo Dalot - Has been working his way back to full fitness but should start on Sunday.

CB: Raphael Varane - The exact sort of big-game leader that Man Utd will need in order to win a cup final.

CB: Lisandro Martinez - Won four trophies under Ten Hag's guidance in their Ajax days.

LB: Luke Shaw - In his last final appearance at Wembley, Shaw opened the scoring for England against Italy at Euro 2020.

CM: Casemiro - Looking to claim his second piece of silverware this season after helping Real Madrid win the UEFA Super Cup back in August - a game he was named Player of the Match for.

CM: Fred - Came up trumps with the equaliser against Barcelona on Thursday, with Ten Hag deploying him as a 'mosquito' in order to stop Frenkie de Jong.

RM: Antony - Was the hero in Thursday's Europa League clash, proving why he deserves more time to settle into English football.

AM: Bruno Fernandes - Man Utd simply play better with Fernandes playing in his natural role.

LM: Jadon Sancho - Scored a brace in his last club cup final appearance - a 4-1 win over RB Leipzig to take home the 2021 DFB-Pokal.

CF: Marcus Rashford - If passed fit, Rashford should play through the middle. Enough of the Wout Weghorst part-number nine part-number ten stuff.
