Ruben Amorim must decide whether to bring Marcus Rashford back into the squad for Manchester United’s Boxing Day trip to Wolves.
Rashford has been left out for the last three matches, with Amorim recently questioning the forward’s decision to give an interview after he was dropped for the Manchester derby.
Asked after United’s heavy defeat to Bournemouth on Sunday whether Rashford could return to face Wolves, Amorim said: "It depends, we will see."
Rashford is unlikely to start, even if he does come back into the squad. Rasmus Hojlund is to return to the starting lineup, after Joshua Zirkzee again failed to impress against Bournemouth.
Amorim could opt to make changes in midfield after a poor display last time out, with Casemiro an option to come in having not featured much in recent weeks and Kobbie Mainoo largely struggling for form.
Matthijs de Ligt is expected to recover from illness and could start in the back three, with Leny Yoro also in contention to feature.
Harry Maguire is the most likely to drop to the bench, while Noussair Mazraoui should return to his preferred wing-back role.
Predicted Man United XI (3-4-2-1): Onana; Yoro, De Ligt, Martinez; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Casemiro, Dalot; Fernandes, Amad; Hojlund
Injured: Shaw, Lindelof, Mount
Doubt: De Ligt
