United Under-21s ready to begin PL2 season
Manchester United Under-21s kick off the Premier League 2 season on Saturday afternoon with a trip to Arsenal.
The young Reds will travel south to the home of Boreham Wood FC where kick-off is scheduled for 13:00 BST.
Due to Premier League regulations, the fixture cannot be shown live on MUTV because it clashes with live TV coverage of a top-flight fixture in the UK - in this case, Fulham v Liverpool.
However, you will be able to get team news plus half-time and full-time summaries in the United App, where match highlights will later be shown.
