Wait a minute, it is Eriksen NOT Sabitzer who starts the match

United responded well to their loss at Newcastle by securing back-to-back wins against Brentford and Everton, but the midweek draw against Sevilla was disappointing, considering a two-goal lead was wasted in the closing stages.

The result was also aggravated by the injuries to Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martínez. It's important for United to bounce back against Forest, although it won't be an easy game as Steve Cooper's side fight for survival.

As for the news of the team, United suffered a blow with the loss of Marcel Sabitzer in the warm-up. He is replaced by Christian Eriksen. Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay are not ready to return, and United are also missing Tyrell Malacia, Marcus Rashford, Varane and Martinez. Diogo Dalot is at left-back with Malacia absent from the squad.

Teenage right-back Marc Jurado comes to the bench for the first time with Brandon Williams and Zidane Iqbal also named as substitutes. Nathan Bishop is already on the bench after Marcel Sabitzer's injury.

Eriksen's entrance

Eriksen for Sabitzer is not remotely similar and we will soon find out if Eriksen is playing behind Martial or if Fernandes returns to the midfielder role. Casemiro, Eriksen and Fernandes have been Ten Hag's three favorite midfielders for most of the season, but those three haven't. They started together since January and United's plans changed at the last minute, so it's a great test of United's shake-up skills. Especially since Sabitzer is one of the best pressers on the team.
