Marcus Rashford, Joshua Zirkzee, and Amad Diallo are all starting for Manchester United tonight against FC Twente in the Europa League.
Manager Erik ten Hag was expected to make significant changes to the team, but that is not the case, as captain Bruno Fernandes is also in the starting lineup.
New signing Manuel Ugarte is starting in midfield alongside Christian Eriksen, with Kobbie Mainoo getting some rest.
Andre Onana is the goalkeeper for tonight’s match.
Harry Maguire replaces Matthijs de Ligt at center-back, while Diogo Dalot, Lisandro Martinez, and Noussair Mazraoui complete the defensive line.
It’s uncertain if De Ligt is benched due to rotation or a minor injury since he is among the substitutes.
Victor Lindelof and Tyrell Malacia are training again but didn’t make the bench, while Luke Shaw and Leny Yoro are still unavailable.
Bruno Fernandes will play as the number 10, with Rashford and Amad on the wings, and Zirkzee leading the attack.
Mason Mount is on the bench after recovering from injury.
Erik ten Hag has chosen to have two goalkeepers, Altay Bayindir and Tom Heaton, on the bench.
The substitutes also include Jonny Evans, Casemiro, Toby Collyer, Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, and Rasmus Hojlund.
Manchester United now have a full-strength midfield and attacking lineup for the first time since last season.
