Man United XI vs Chelsea FC: Ronaldo benched - Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injuries for Premier League today

Cristiano Ronaldo has been left on the bench for Manchester United’s crunch trip to Chelsea in the Premier League this afternoon.

The Portuguese is only named among the substitutes as Marcus Rashford leads the line, while Jadon Sancho gets chance to build on his goal against Villarreal in the Champions League in midweek.

In terms of team news, Harry Maguire is suspended but Mason Greenwood is back on the bench. Edinson Cavani and Luke Shaw are both missing from the matchday squad, but Fred has been deemed fit enough to start in a midfield that also includes Scott McTominay and Nemanja Matic.

Paul Pogba and Raphael Varane remain longer term absentees.

Man United starting XI: De Gea, Telles, Lindelof, Bailly, Wan-Bissaka, Matic, McTominay, Fred, Fernandes, Sancho, Rashford

Venue: Stamford Bridge

Date: Sunday November 28, 4:30pm GMT
