Manchester United XI vs Aston Villa

Andre Onana starts between the sticks.

The back four changes with Harry Maguire and Jonny Evans starting at centre-back, while Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui start in the full-back roles. That means Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt are named on the bench.

In midfield, we have Kobbie Mainoo and Christian Eriksen joined by Bruno Fernandes who will be trying to avoid a third red card in as many games.

Rasmus Hojlund starts up front with Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho on either side.
