Manchester United are back in action this afternoon as they host Aston Villa in the Premier League at Old Trafford.
Interim manager Michael Carrick has made two changes from the side that disappointingly lost to 10-man Newcastle last time out.
Defence
Senne Lammens is in goal.
The back four are Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro and Luke Shaw.
Matthijs de Ligt, Lisandro Martinez, and Patrick Dorgu are injured, while Noussair Mazraoui is not 100% fit after sustaining a small injury against the Magpies.
Midfield and Attack
Once again, Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo are the holding midfielders. Bruno Fernandes is in the number 10 position.
Up front, Amad, Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha will all be hoping to get in the goals. Ben Sesko has to make do with a spot on the bench (it was originally reported that it was Mbeumo who had been dropped).
Substitutes
Altay Bayindir is the substitute keeper. He is joined on the bench by Ayden Heaven, Tyrell Malacia, Mazraoui, Manuel Ugarte, Tyler Fletcher, Joshua Zirkzee, Sesko and Mason Mount.
Mount returns from a small injury that has kept him sidelined for a few weeks.
Kick-off at Old Trafford is at 2pm.
A win for United will see them pull three points cleae of the Villans in third place and six ahead of Chelsea in fourth. A loss could see the Red Devils drop to fifth depending on Liverpool’s result against Spurs today.
The Reds taking on Aston Villa 👊🔴
