Ruben Amorim is set to ring the changes when Manchester United face Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup quarter-final on Thursday night.
United are back in action for the first time since their derby win over Man City last weekend and are expected to freshen up their starting line up ahead of facing Bournemouth in the Premier League this weekend.

Hide AdAmorim has already made the huge decision to recall Alejandro Garnacho to the travelling squad for the match, while it looks like there could be a change in goal for the match as well. Andre Onana is the first-choice at United and has played every minute of Amorim's reign so far, but there is a suggestion Altay Bayindir could be given the chance to impress in the quarter-final tie tonight.
The 26-year-old has only ever made three appearances for the club since he joined from Fenerbahce last year, starting in the previous two rounds of the League Cup against Barnsley and Leicester City. However, it looks like he could be set to start for only the fourth time tonight after he dropped a potential selection hint on social media earlier in the day.
Taking to his official Instagram account, Bayindir uploaded a pre-match video previewing the clash with Tottenham, activity that would indicate he is set to start the match. The Turkish goalkeeper will look to impress new head coach Amorim amid the suggestion he could be sold next year after a disappointing spell with the club.
