Manchester United return to Premier League action against Everton after a disappointing loss against Istanbul Basaksehir. The Red Devils were fully expected to put aside the Turkish side but instead fell flat. They also lost their last league game against Arsenal.
Everton aren’t doing so great themselves. They are on a three-game winless run after winning four on the trot. The Toffees have lost their last two games, however, pressure will be on Solskjaer to push United out of the slump and get a win.
Phil Jones and Eric Bailly are ruled out with injury. The other confirmed absentee is Jesse Lingard. Alex Telles was diagnosed with COVID but could be involved if he tests negative before the game. Lindelof is also a bit of a doubt for this one. Solskjaer threw quite a curveball with his team selection against Istanbul and more changes from the game can be on show.
Should be back after being rotated for the last game. The Spaniard has been in good form over the last few weeks.
Wan-Bissaka shrugged off his early-season struggles to produce a stellar defensive display and continues at right-back.
A minor doubt but can be expected to make it to the team in place of Tuanzebe.
Captain Maguire is not having the best of times and fingers will be raised at him for the defensive howlers.
The Englishman is playing well at the moment both in defence and attack.
Should return to the line-up after just playing a substitute role versus Istanbul. Will be important in shielding the back four.
Fred has been starting in the last few games but was rested for the previous one.
The Portuguese needs to rediscover his mercurial form. The team looks blunt without him.
The youngster is having a hot and cold situation and needs a few goals to get back into his groove.
His domestic suspension is finally over but he featured in the midweek games. Expected to be in good form after netting two goals in the last two European games.
Another returnee, Greenwood will likely start this one from the off instead of the bench.
