Amorim names team to face Palace

Ruben Amorim has picked his Manchester United side to tackle Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

The Reds flew back from Bucharest on Friday, following the 2-0 victory in the Europa League against FCSB, and will have been recuperating in time to face the Eagles in our 14:00 GMT kick-off.

Despite the quick turnaround, Amorim’s men will be hoping to make it four wins on the spin in all competitions.

There are six changes to the team that started the FCSB clash, including Andre Onana replacing Altay Bayindir in goal.

Leny Yoro and Harry Maguire are drafted into the defence, with Noussair Mazraoui reverting to wing-back, and Diogo Dalot on the opposite flank. Manuel Ugarte is back, while Alejandro Garnacho and Amad are rewarded for their second-half displays in Romania with places in attack.

A big question is who will play up front, with the suspicion that there could be rotation in that position.

Young keeper Elyh Harrison is on the bench in the Premier League for the first time.

United: Onana; Yoro, Maguire, Martinez; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Dalot; Amad, Fernandes, Garnacho.

Substitutes: Bayindir, Harrison, De Ligt, Lindelof, Casemiro, Collyer, Eriksen, Hojlund, Zirkzee.
