Manchester United have recalled Harry Maguire for today’s Premier League clash against Brentford.
United are still without on-loan left-back Sergio Reguilon, who will miss out for a fourth consecutive match with a hamstring problem.
With Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw still sidelined, Sofyan Amrabat has been filling in at left-back.
Lisandro Martinez is a long-term absentee, while Jadon Sancho is still unavailable.
Casemiro is available because his red card against Galatasaray only leaves him with a ban in Europe.
Antony is on the bench, though Erik ten Hag said on Friday: “I think he’s ready for a start.”
The Brazilian had not featured since United’s defeat at Arsenal on September 3, following allegations of domestic abuse made by a number of women.
The 23-year-old, who denies the allegations, remains under investigation by police in both England and his homeland.
