Melbourne Victory vs Man Utd LIVE highlights and reaction as Red Devils ease to victory

Melbourne Victory #MelbourneVictory

Erik ten Hag will get another chance to look at his Manchester United side ahead of the season opener when they clash with Melbourne Victory in a friendly down under.

The Red Devils got their pre-season campaign off to a flying start with a convincing 4-0 victory over rivals Liverpool in Thailand earlier this week. Tyrell Malacia remains the only summer signing for Ten Hag thus far and performed well on his debut in Bangkok.

And while Ten Hag is still without Cristiano Ronaldo, he does welcome back skipper Harry Maguire for this fixture at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The hosts will also have a familiar face in their squad as ex-United winger Nani could be involved after completing a transfer to the Australian outfit earlier this month.

The starting line-up for the clash has already been announced: Heaton: Shaw, Maguire, Lindelof, Dalot; Fred, Mctominay, Fernandes; Elanga, Sancho, Martial.
