The Champions League quarterfinal action continues on Wednesday with Man United taking on Barcelona.

Man United are through to the final eight following an incredible win at PSG in the last round.

Can Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side overcome Barcelona over 180 minutes?

That will prove a tough ask, as Barcelona are flying at the moment.

The Catalans could end up winning the treble this season, as they are on course to win La Liga and the Copa del Rey.

No Anthony Martial: Man United likely XI

The Manchester Evening News have gone about guessing at how Man United may line-up at Old Trafford tonight.

Solskjaer is expected to throw caution to the wind playing a 4-3-3 formation.

Can Man United really go toe-to-toe with Barca and win?

According to M.E.N, Anthony Martial will be omitted from the starting XI.

Marcus Rashford is tipped to play out wide, while Romelu Lukaku may start through the middle.

Jesse Lingard will be deployed in the attacking right forward role.

In midfield, M.E.N predict that Fred will get the nod at kick-off. Alternatively, Nemanja Matic could start in that role instead. Elsewhere, Scott McTominay and Paul Pogba will be picked in the XI.

No Ousmane Dembele: Barcelona likely XI

Although he returned to first team training last week, Ousmane Dembele isn’t expected to line-up in Barcelona’s XI.

That’s according to the Times, who predict that Leo Messi, Luis Suarez and Philippe Coutinho will lead the Spanish attack.

Barcelona’s midfield three is predicted to be Sergio Busquets, Ivan Rakitic and Arthur.

At the back, French centre-half Clement Lenglet is tipped to start alongside Gerard Pique.
