The Reds head to the Midlands searching for a first league win since the 3-0 win over Southampton on 14 September.

Our opponents, Aston Villa, fly into the match high on Wednesday night's 1-0 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, and are unbeaten since a 2-0 home defeat to Arsenal back in August.

Following Thursday's madcap 3-3 draw against FC Porto in Europe, Ten Hag has made the following four adjustments to the starting XI that began in Portugal.

There are arguably two bits of headline news, the first being Kobbie Mainoo's return to the line-up. The midfielder has not played since being withdrawn during the first half of last weekend's Premier League game against Spurs.

In defence, United's hero in Porto, Harry Maguire, earns a starting spot alongside Jonny Evans at the centre of our back four.

There's also a place in the XI for Alejandro Garnacho, who is partnered by Bruno Fernandes, Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford in attack.

THE LINE-UPS

Aston Villa: Martinez (c); Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne; Tielemans, Barkley; Bailey, Rogers, Philogene; Watkins.

Substitutes: Gauci, Carlos, Duran, Buendia, Nedeljkovic, Maatsen, Bogarde, Swinkels, Young.

United: Onana; Mazraoui, Maguire, Evans, Dalot; Eriksen, Mainoo; Garnacho, Fernandes (c), Rashford; Hojlund.
