After losing to Copenhagen in the European Cup, Man Utd returned to the domestic arena by welcoming Luton Town at home. This is one of the weakest teams in the Premier League, which means Man Utd must win 3 points if they do not want to fall deeper into crisis.
The performance in the match against Copenhagen brought many positive signs for Man Utd professionally. Coach Erik ten Hag’s students did not play badly. Marcus Rashford’s controversial red card is what makes it difficult for the Red Devils.
Until Rashford received a direct red card, Man Utd played well, pressing the opponent and quickly got 2 goals from Rasmus Hojlund. But when having to play without players, the England representative encountered many difficulties and could not rise up against the opponent.
If Man Utd can maintain their inspiration to play football, winning is not a goal that is out of reach. The problem for the Old Trafford home team is morale.
Meanwhile, Luton Town does not possess a strong enough force and is rated much lower than its opponents. But, after the draw with Liverpool, Ross Barkley and his teammates gained more confidence. They can actually still create surprises and thus accumulate points.

Man Utd will be without a number of players due to injury, including Casemiro (hamstring), Lisandro Martinez (foot), Luke Shaw (muscle), Amad Diallo, Tyrell Malacia (knee) and Jadon Sancho (internal discipline). ).

On the other side of the line, Mads Andersen, Reece Burke, Albert Sambi Lokonga (all thighs), Daniel Potts and Jordan Clark (both ankles) are still sidelined with injuries, but Amari’i Bell could recover after Thigh problem in Saturday’s match.
