Man Utd vs Leicester City lineups: Confirmed team news and starting XIs

Manchester United are caught in the grip of an injury crisis for today's Premier League clash against Leicester City.

Paul Pogba (ankle) and Anthony Martial (thigh) have not recovered over the international break, while defenders Luke Shaw (hamstring), Diogo Dalot (hip) and Eric Bailly (knee) remain out.

Right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka is fit enough to start, but midfielder Jesse Lingard (illness) also misses out for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

Daniel James retains his role on the left, with Juan Mata on the right and Marcus Rashford leading the attack.

Leicester had no new injury issues after all of their players returned from international duty unscathed.

Foxes skipper Wes Morgan is fit enough for a bench role after a back problem while long-term absentee Matthew James is still recovering from an operation on his troublesome Achilles and was not named in Leicester's 25-man Premier League squad this week.

Starting lineups

Man Utd: de Gea, Wan Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Young, McTominay, Matic, Andreas Pereira, Mata, James, Rashford

Subs: Jones, Fred, Romero, Greenwood, Gomes, Tuanzebe, Chong

Leicester: Schmeichel, Ricardo Pereira, Evans, Soyuncu, Chilwell, Ndidi, Gray, Tielemans, Choudhury, Maddison, Vardy

Subs: Justin, Morgan, Albrighton, Ward, Barnes, Perez, Praet
