Pundit predictions: Who starts against Barnsley?

Tuesday 17 September 2024 15:00

Manchester United's Premier League win at Southampton on Saturday will no doubt have given Erik ten Hag some questions to ponder ahead of Tuesday's Carabao Cup tie against Barnsley.

The Tykes visit Old Trafford for a 20:00 BST kick-off, with a place in the fourth round of the competition up for grabs, and it remains to be seen if Erik will shuffle his pack.

Alejandro Garnacho came off the bench to score at the weekend and, by the reckoning of former United defender Wes Brown, the Argentina international should be one of eight changes in the Reds' starting XI on Tuesday evening.
