• Manchester United will open their Premier League campaign with a clash against Wolves on Monday
• Erik ten Hag is expected to name a strong team with Mason Mount and Andre Onana set for EPL debuts
• United will look to make a statement despite new signing Rasmus Hojlund currently being out injured

Manchester United are scheduled to face Wolves on Monday night, August 14, in their opening game of the new Premier League season.

The Red Devils will be heading into the match off a mixed pre-season campaign that saw Erik ten Hag's charges breathe hot and cold.

United will be desperate to use the Wolves clash to send an EPL title statement, with the Dutch coach keen to help the Red Devils challenge for the crown.

The Manchester club sealed a third-place finish last season behind rivals, Arsenal and Manchester City, who were crowned the champions.

Ten Hag will no doubt be looking to build on that, having already made three major summer signings in the shape of Rasmus Hojlund, Andre Onana, and Mason Mount, the latter of which joined from Chelsea.

How United could line up vs Wolves

Given the significance of the match, United's Dutch coach will be keen to parade a strong team to get his side off a winning start.

According to 90min, ten Hag is likely to settle for a 4-3-3 formation, with Onana making his Premier League bow between the sticks.

Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez are expected to partner at the heart of defence, with Diogo Dalot and Luke Shaw playing on either flank.

Mount and Casemiro are likely to start together in the middle of the park, with Bruno Fernandes, who is the club's new captain, playing in a more advanced role.

New signing, Hojlund, is not match fit, per The Mirror, meaning he will not be available to lead the line.

As such, ten Hag is expected to task Marcus Rashford with the responsibility, with Alejandro Garnacho and Antony possibly joining the Englishman in attack.

Defenders: Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw

Midfielders: Casemiro, Mount, Fernandes

Forwards: Antony, Rashford, Garnacho.

Greenwood wants to stay at United

Meanwhile, Sports Brief reported that Mason Greenwood is desperate to stay at Unted despite the uncertainty surrounding his future at Old Trafford.

The youngster has not kicked a ball for the Red Devils in more than a year and a half after he was suspended by United after his arrest in January 2022.

Since the charges against him were dropped, reports state that Greenwood is desperate to remain at Old Trafford as he bids to reignite his football career.
