Confirmed: United’s team to face Spurs

Ruben Amorim has made five changes to his Manchester United line-up, ahead of Thursday’s clash against Tottenham Hotspur.

Altay Bayindir comes in for Andre Onana in goal, while Leny Yoro and Victor Lindelof replace Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire at the back. De Ligt has not been included in the matchday squad due to illness.

Our further two changes across the starting XI see Christan Eriksen and Antony swap in for Mason Mount, who is injured, and Amad.

The Reds are bidding to make it into the last four of this season’s Carabao Cup, but there is a tricky test against Ange Postecoglou’s side to navigate through first.

Spirits are high after our most recent win, a 2-1 derby success over Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

Holders Liverpool, Arsenal and Newcastle booked their places in the next round of the cup, with wins over Southampton, Crystal Palace and Brentford respectively on Wednesday.

Should United progress, we will find out our semi-final opponents tonight, as the draw takes place live on Sky Sports Football and Sky Sports Main Event after the full-time whistle.

UNITED TEAM TO FACE SPURS

United: Bayindir; Yoro, Lindelof, Martinez; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Eriksen, Dalot; Antony, Fernandes (c); Hojlund.

Substitutes: Onana, Evans, Maguire, Malacia, Casemiro, Mainoo, Amad, Garnacho, Zirkzee.
