Confirmed Man United XI vs West Ham: Amorim makes three changes with Yoro dropped and De Ligt out

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has named his starting line-up for today’s Premier League clash against West Ham United at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils returned to winning ways by registering a gritty 2-1 win over Crystal Palace last weekend.

They now have the chance to build momentum and accelerate their push towards a top-four finish.

Amorim has shaken things up with three changes.

Senne Lammens keeps his starting spot and will be desperate to claim his second clean sheet in a United shirt.

Matthijs de Ligt won the club’s Player of the Month award for November but is not part of the squad potentially due to an injury.

Ayden Heaven has replaced him in the XI, making his first start of the season.

Mazraoui and Luke Shaw will support him to form the back three. Leny Yoro gave away a penalty against Palace and is dropped to the bench today.

Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot will operate from the right and left wing-back positions respectively.

Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes surprisingly start again in midfield.

Many saw this rare midweek clash as a perfect opportunity to give Kobbie Mainoo his maiden start of the league campaign.

Cunha missed the last two clashes due to a head injury he suffered in training.

He is back fit and will start in the left-sided number 10 spot with Bryan Mbeumo on the other side.

Leading the line is Joshua Zirkzee, who netted the crucial equaliser against Palace and now aims to deliver once again in front of the Old Trafford faithful.

United are still without Benjamin Sesko and Harry Maguire, with both stars sidelined as they continue their recovery from injury.

Confirmed Man United line-up (3-4-2-1): Senne Lammens; Noussair Mazraoui, Ayden Heaven, Luke Shaw; Amad Diallo, Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Dalot; Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha; Joshua Zirkzee
