Crisis? Not for us \u2013 Erik ten Hag can see Man Utd progress after Chelsea win<\/h3>\n

Erik ten Hag would have liked to name an unchanged side in Saturday\u2019s Premier League clash against AFC Bournemouth, a rarity in Manchester United\u2019s injury-stricken season. i runs through the likely line-up at Old Trafford, featuring one switch from the 2-1 win over Chelsea midweek.<\/p>\n

Goalkeeper – Onana<\/h2>\n

Andre Onana has cost Ten Hag in the Champions League, but he has come into his own in the Premier League during United\u2019s positive patch of results.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old will hope to keep his sixth league clean sheet of the campaign by denying the Cherries\u2019 dangerous attack.<\/p>\n

Defence – Dalot, Maguire, Shaw, Reguilon<\/h2>\n

United\u2019s sole change will likely come in defence after the club confirmed that Victor Lindelof was ruled out through injury.<\/p>\n

The Swede was replaced by Reguilon at half-time in Wednesday\u2019s triumph over Chelsea, with Luke Shaw moving to centre-back.<\/p>\n

Given United\u2019s strong second-half showing, Ten Hag will have faith in that combination to produce the goods again despite Raphael Varane\u2019s confirmed return to contention.<\/p>\n

Diogo Dalot should keep his place at right-back ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka. He was a valuable attacking outlet against Chelsea.<\/p>\n

Midfield – Amrabat, McTominay, Fernandes<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s likely obvious, given that Reguilon for Lindelof has been noted as the sole change, but the display last time out doesn\u2019t warrant a change in midfield and attack.<\/p>\n

Sofyan Amrabat enjoyed his best performance as a United player, bullying \u00a3220million midfield duo Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez.<\/p>\n

The Moroccan deserves to fend off Kobbie Mainoo for now, with captain Bruno Fernandes and United top goalscorer Scott McTominay ahead of him.<\/p>\n

McTominay has been the hero on more than one occasion at Old Trafford this season, and Bournemouth will have earmarked him as a danger man.<\/p>\n
