Ruben Amorim has named the Manchester United side for his first home game in the Premier League, as Everton visit Old Trafford.
The boss has made six changes from the 3-2 win over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League and, as is the case at the moment, it is difficult to be sure on the exact positioning of certain players.
Joshua Zirkzee or Marcus Rashford could lead the line with both options to fill the centre-forward slot.
Kobbie Mainoo returns to make his maiden appearance under Amorim, while Amad could start at wing-back again, after performing well in the role during the 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town last weekend.
Harry Maguire is back in the squad, and among the substitutes, after, like Mainoo, being absent since the goalless draw at Aston Villa on 6 October.
It is a strong bench, with Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund, who shared the three goals against Bodo/Glimt, waiting for a chance to come on and attack the Toffees.
Ex-Reds captain Ashley Young is in the visitors' XI, while Beto is preferred to Dominic Calvert-Lewin up front.
**THE TEAMS**
**United:** Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez; Amad, Casemiro, Mainoo, Dalot; Fernandes (c), Rashford; Zirkzee.
**Substitutes:** Bayindir, Maguire, Malacia, Shaw, Mount, Ugarte, Antony, Garnacho, Hojlund.
**Everton:** Pickford; Young, Tarkowski (c), Branthwaite, Mykolenko, Gueye, Doucoure; Lindstrom, McNeil, Ndiaye; Beto.
**Substitutes:** Begovic, Virginia, Coleman, O'Brien, Patterson, Armstrong, Harrison, Mangala, Calvert-Lewin.
