Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has named his starting line-up to face West Ham United, with the return of Alejandro Garnacho to the squad the major talking point.
United have another crucial Premier League clash on the cards and can further cement their place in the top four. Liverpool's 1-0 win over Brentford on Saturday closed the gap to a single point, but this evening's clash is the first of two games in hand for the Reds.
The Hammers have twice visited Old Trafford this season and twice come away with nothing, a 1-0 league defeat in October followed by the 3-1 FA Cup win for Ten Hag's side in March. A solid run in March has just about pulled David Moyes' side out of relegation trouble, but three defeats since leaves work still to do.

United fell to a crushing 1-0 defeat against Brighton on Thursday and Ten Hag has made a few changes from that game, most notably the return of Christian Eriksen in midfield in place of Fred. The Dane remains unbeaten when starting alongside Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes.
Ahead of them, Anthony Martial has also been dropped after his poor display at the Amex. Wout Weghorst has come in as a direct replacement up top, with Antony and Marcus Rashford on the left and right wings respectively.
Injuries at the back leave Ten Hag with fewer decisions to make, although the Dutchman has opted to bring Tyrell Malacia back in at left-back as Diogo Dalot drops out. Luke Shaw and Victor Lindelof have struck up a solid partnership in the centre and the duo start again with Aaron Wan-Bissaka to their right and the ever-present David de Gea behind them.
As encouraging as any starters is the return of Alejandro Garnacho, who has been absent since the start of March with an ankle injury. And as news came through of his return to the squad, supporters shared their reactions on social media.
United starting XI in full: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Shaw, Malacia; Casemiro, Fernandes, Eriksen; Antony, Weghorst, Rashford
Subs: Butland, Maguire, Dalot, Williams, Fred, Sabitzer, Garnacho, Sancho, Martial
