Ruben Amorim has made several changes to his Manchester United starting lineup for today’s Premier League clash with Brighton at Old Trafford.
Diogo Dalot returns after serving a one-match suspension. He will play in the left wing back role, with Noussair Mazraoui at right wing back.
Harry Maguire also returns to the defence and joins Matthijs de Ligt and Leny Yoro, with Lisandro Martinez missing out.
Andre Onana is in goal.
Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte are once again the midfield pivot.
The front three are Bruno Fernandes, Amad and Joshua Zirkzee.
Zirkzee earned a start after a couple of impressive cameos off the bench in the last few games.
Rasmus Hojlund is rested after a poor run of games.
Joining him on the substitute’s bench are Altay Bayindir, Tyrell Malacia, Martinez, Christian Eriksen, Casemiro, Toby Collyer, Antony and Alejandro Garnacho.
Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans and Mason Mount are injured.
There is still no place in the squad for Marcus Rashford.
Kick-off is at 2pm GMT.
