Youri Tielemans replaces injured midfielder Carlos Baleba
and Noussair Mazraoui is recalled for Ayden Heaven as Michael Carrick makes two
changes to the side that beat Roma on Tuesday.

Amad Diallo retains his spot, so Shea Lacey must wait to
make his first Premier League start. Lisandro Martinez is ruled out following
his controversial dismissal at Chelsea.

Man Utd XI: Lammens, Dalot, Yoro, Maguire, Mazraoui, Tielemans,
Mainoo, Amad Diallo, Bruno Fernandes, Cunha, Mbeumo.

Subs: Darlow, De
Ligt, Mount, Zirkzee, Dorgu, Andrey Santos, Heaven, Lacey, J Fletcher.

Unai Emery makes three changes to the side hammered in Barcelona,
with former Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof set to start at right-back.

There is no place in the Villa squad for Alejandro Garnacho, who has struggled
to make an impact since leaving Old Trafford in the summer of 2025. Taylor
Harwood-Bellis, Allyson and Leon Goretkza are all recalled.

Aston Villa XI:
Suzuki, Lindelof, Harwood-Bellis, Torres, Maatsen, Alysson, Kamara, McGinn,
Goretzka, Manzambi, Jackson.

Subs: Bizot, Mings, Barkley, Buendia, Mbaye,
Gomes, Madjo, Cisse, Hemmings.
