Noussair Mazraoui is also recalled following the 1-1 draw at Leeds on Sunday. Leny Yoro and Lisandro Martinez are absent, while Carlos Baleba and Amad move to the bench.

Bruno Fernandes captains the side, with Bryan Mbeumo retaining his place after scoring at Elland Road. Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans also continue, while Senne Lammens starts in goal.

Mazraoui replaced Martinez at Elland Road and now starts alongside fellow defenders Dalot, Maguire and De Ligt. United had confirmed Yoro’s suspension in their training update before travelling to Italy.

Mount and Cunha were also used as substitutes on Sunday and have the opportunity to make an impact from the start. Baleba and Amad remain available from the bench, alongside Joshua Zirkzee and several younger players.

United are seeking their first victory in seven matches in all competitions after Leeds extended their winless run.
