Manchester United line up vs RB Leipzig includes Luke Shaw but no Paul Pogba

Manchester United have confirmed their starting XI for the crucial Champions League fixture against RB Leipzig on Tuesday night.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made five changes from the side which defeated West Ham at the weekend with midfielder Paul Pogba named on the bench.

David de Gea is chosen over Dean Henderson in goal after his return from injury, while club captain Harry Maguire starts with Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw in a three-man defence.

Brazilian midfielder Fred is suspended for the match with United opting to select Scott McTominay and Nemanja Matic behind Bruno Fernandes in their midfield.

Injuries to Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani leave Solskjaer with limited options up front, with Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood paired together after both players scored at West Ham.

United XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw, Telles, Matic, McTominay, Fernandes, Greenwood, Rashford.

Subs: Henderson, Grant, Bailly, Fosu-Mensah, Tuanzebe, Williams, James, Lingard, Mata, Pogba, van de Beek, Ighalo.
