I think we may give Milner a game. along side Henderson and another.

The fact that Arsenal and Spurs failed to win their matches may actually benefit us a little here.
Man United are now back in genuine contention for nicking 4th spot in the dying embers of the season and Champion's League football is a huge incentive to try and win the game.
With so few games for them left after this fixture, they can't simply say "we'll get the points in the other games" as it could leave too much to do - they may actually feel that they have to come at us a bit to get a win (rather than set up in a 6-3-1 low block job) and that would play into our hands if they give us room to pass the ball.
Also good that Ronaldo scored a free-kick at the weekend. He will likely insist on taking them against us and his conversion rate from them is incredibly low.
Their main threat really is pace on the counter (which our offside trap can handle) and Ronaldo's impressive jumping ability at corners. We on the other hand have a multitude of threats and should enter this match with massive self-belief.

Varane 50/50 better off bringing him back for a game they have a chance of winning imo
They've had half an hours more rest than us, most of the players they have fit have played more minutes than our lads as we've been resting and rotating
