Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men can extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to 17 matches as they push for a top-four finish.
Team news
Tom Heaton, Matt Targett and Wesley are ruled out for the hosts, while Bjorn Engels is a doubt with an Achilles problem.
Victor Lindelof (back) is a doubt, while Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones are sidelined.
