Man Utd predicted lineup vs Chelsea - Premier League

Manchester United suffered yet more disappointment on their return from the March international break last Saturday.

CB: Lisandro Martinez - A return to action against Brentford will have pleased Man Utd fans considering the centre-back has been missing for over a month. With Harry Maguire's form
