Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is without five members of his regular first-team as Manchester United take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

Nemanja Matic, Ander Herrera, Anthony Martial, Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata are all ruled out with Marcus Rashford a major doubt after picking up an ankle knock against Liverpool on Sunday.

Phil Jones, Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian also are unavailable, given Solskjaer little alternative to call upon youth with Angel Gomes, Tahith Chong and James Garner set to make the bench.

Palace have concerns of their own with Mamadou Sakho after he Frenchman was forced off with a knee injury during Palace’s win over Leicester on Saturday.

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Young, Lindelof, Smalling, Shaw, Fred, McTominay, Pogba, Pereira, Lukaku, Sanchez
