Matthijs de Ligt, who missed the midweek journey to north London by way of sickness, continues to be sick and Marcus Rashford is once more not concerned within the matchday squad.

Ruben advised Sky Sports activities: “Matta [Matthijs] continues to be sick and Harry we simply saved him from that sport [Thursday], as a result of he did the primary 90 minutes for a very long time [at City] and we’ve to watch out with this sort of participant. Josh [Zirkzee] he did very well within the final sport and we’d like recent legs. Onana returns to the Premier League, so the whole lot has a objective and we’re prepared for this sport.” 

Mason Mount will likely be sidelined for a number of weeks because of one other harm setback, after being withdrawn within the 14th minute of final Sunday’s Manchester derby victory. Luke Shaw continues to be persevering with his restoration from harm.

United: Onana; Mazraoui, Maguire, Martinez; Dalot, Ugarte, Mainoo, Malacia; Amad, Fernandes (c); Zirkzee.

Substitutes: Bayindir, Evans, Yoro, Casemiro, Collyer, Eriksen, Antony, Garnacho, Hojlund.
