Manuel Lanzini (knock) will be reviewed before the match, although Michail Antonio (hamstring) and Winston Reid (knee) remain sidelined.

Luke Shaw (hamstring) remains out for Man Utd, who are also unlikely to welcome back Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial due to respective knocks.. 

Daniel James (ankle) will be assessed.
