Chido Obi starts and debut given - Manchester United predicted XI vs Wolves
@Source: manchestereveningnews.co.uk
The Europa League has been Manchester United's main priority for some time and nothing has changed after Thursday's dramatic comeback victory over Lyon.
United's domestic campaign has been a write-off since they were dumped out of the FA Cup on penalties by Fulham but the squad will be determined to finish their Premier League campaign on a high.
Ruben Amorim's side are three games without a win in the league and today they face a Wolves team that have won four games on the bounce. Changes are expected as United look to protect key players ahead of their Europa League first leg vs Athletic Bilbao in 11 days' time and so a number of the club's youngsters could be handed a chance.
Andre Onana should start in goal after his encouraging display against Lyon. Jaydan Kamason was named on the bench for both of United's clashes with Lyon and he could be in line for a debut at right wing-back. Leny Yoro, Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw can start in the back three with Patrick Dorgu on the left.
Mason Mount should be given a chance from the start after making five substitute appearances since his return from injury. The former Chelsea man can start alongside Manuel Ugarte as Casemiro is rested.
Kobbie Mainoo was instrumental in United's victory over Lyon. He came off the bench shortly before extra time and provided a moment of magic to level the tie. The academy graduate deserves a start as he looks to build up match fitness ahead of the semi-final vs Bilbao.
Alejandro Garnacho looked bright on Thursday but was guilty of missing a glorious chance to put United 3-0 up. He should keep his place today and support Chido Obi in attack. Obi has enjoyed time with senior squad recently after injuries limited Amorim's options, and with Rasmus Hojlund the only senior striker available it would be wise to keep him fresh with bigger games on the horizon.
