Manchester United are set to make changes to their starting line up when they welcome Brentford in the Premier League next weekend.
United are set to have just one fully fit senior full-back for the match, with five defenders ruled out of the clash. Harry Maguire and Noussair Mazroaui are both expected to be ruled out for the next few weeks, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are not yet match fit and Leny Yoro is still working on his rehabilitation.
Jonny Evans will likely keep his starting role in defence, with Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof the two most likely contenders to fill in at full-back along with Diogo Dalot. Christian Eriksen is also a contender to keep his place in the line up having started six of the last seven matches across all competitions.
Here is how we think United should line up based on the early team news:
