Manchester United vs Norwich: Team News & Prediction

Manchester United slumped to their third defeat in five games with a 1-0 defeat to Everton last weekend, leaving United six points adrift of the Champions League places.

United will face a Norwich side rooted to the foot of the table, although last weekend’s 2-0

win over Burnley has given Dean Smith’s side a glimmer of hope heading into the relegation run-in.

The injuries are piling up for Rangnick after both Fred and Cristiano Ronaldo suffered problems in the 1-0 defeat to Everton last weekend.

Raphael Varane and Scott McTominay were already unavailable for Man Utd, with Rangnick

hinting that the latter is suffering with persistent problems on the sole of his foot.

Burnley through illness, while Przemyslaw Placheta and Joshua Sargent could also be available.

Man Utd vs Norwich score prediction

There is no more margin for error for Man Utd in the race for the top four, with last weekend’s limp defeat at Everton underlining the malaise currently engulfing the club.

Perhaps those inside the dressing room will be buoyed by the news that Erik ten Haag is

closing in on becoming their new manager in the summer, but you could equally make the case that it would barely cause a ripple among the players.

Still, United should have too much for a Norwich side destined for the Championship.

 

Prediction: Man Utd 3-1 Norwich
