Manchester United are expected to make five changes to the XI that defeated Crystal Palace at Old Trafford in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.
Erik ten Hag will be encouraged by Manchester United‘s 3-0 win over Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening, with a number of players putting in fantastic performances.
While it may have come as a surprise that Andrè Onana kept his place over Altay Bayndr, Onana is expected to start as United’s Premier League goalkeeper against Palace on Saturday.

The back line saw an impressive performance from Diogo Dalot, who will no doubt be selected once again, and will almost certainly start with Raphaël Varane again.
Despite Harry Maguire’s good performance, it is likely that Victor Lindelöf will instead pair with the Frenchman, and that Sergio Reguilón will return to the side, assuming he has recovered from his recent illness.
In midfield, top scorer Casemiro may start alongside new signing Sofyan Amrabat in midfield for the first time after the Moroccan filled in at left-back on Tuesday, with captain Bruno Fernandes returning to the XI.
Despite two good starts and performances from Hannibal Mejbri, Ten Hag is expected to drop the youngster as he manages his first team game time.
In attack, Mason Mount may be the one to occupy the right-wing role as he manages his return to full fitness, having played there on several occasions during his Chelsea career.
Up front, it is expected that Ramsus Højlund will return to the XI, with Marcus Rashford the left winger.
Onana, Dalot, Varane, Lindelöf, Reguilón, Casemiro, Amrabat, Fernandes, Rashford, Højlund, Mount.
