Manchester United are likely to be back to full-strength for the visit of Liverpool on Thursday night.
The Old Trafford clash against Premier League champions Liverpool is the third of three games in five days for United following a fixture pile-up.
United beat Aston Villa 3-1 at Villa Park on Sunday to kickstart the run with a win, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer – who was furious with the Premier League’s scheduling – made 10 changees for Tuesday’s home game against Leicester City.
Solskjaer named virtually a second-string XI featuring the likes of Amad Diallo, Anthony Elanga and Donny van de Beek, and Leicester left Old Trafford with a 2-1 win.
The upside to that result is that Solskjaer was able to rest near enough his whole starting lineup before the Liverpool game, meaning there will be wholesale changes again.
Dean Henderson will return in goal, as will Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw at wing-back – though Harry Maguire is out with ankle ligament damage.
With Victor Lindelof likely to return at centre-back, Solskjaer must pick either Eric Bailly or Axel Tuanzebe to partner him – and while the latter fared better against Leicester, Bailly should get the nod.
In midfield, Fred and Scott McTominay will come back in, while Paul Pogba, Bruno Fernandes and Edinson Cavani are likely to start.
The key decision in attack will be whether Solskjaer opts for Mason Greenwood or Marcus Rashford on the right flank. Greenwood is in far better form, and the fact that he came off with time to spare against Leicester suggests that was a substitution to save him for this game.
As for injuries, Maguire joins Anthony Martial and Phil Jones on the sidelines.
Man Utd predicted XI: (4-2-3-1) Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Lindelof, Shaw; Fred, McTominay; Greenwood, Bruno Fernandes, Pogba; Cavani
