Ten Hag names Man Utd starting XI for Brentford clash

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has named Cristiano Ronaldo in his starting XI for tonight's clash at Brentford.

United, who did the double over the Bees last season, will be determined to register their first victory of the campaign after last Sunday's opening day defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion.

Ronaldo has come into the side, meaning Scott McTominay has dropped out, paving the way for Christian Eriksen to start in midfield. It is Ronaldo's first competitive start for United since the 4-0 defeat to Brighton back on May 7.

Meanwhile, Raphael Varane, Tyrell Malacia and James Garner have been named among the substitutes.

Manchester United starting line-up: De Gea; Dalot, Maguire, Martinez, Shaw; Eriksen, Fred, Fernandes; Sancho, Ronaldo, Rashford.

Substitutes: Heaton, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Malacia, McTominay, Garner, Van de Beek, Elanga, Garnacho.
