Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag is believed to be considering dropping club captain Harry Maguire for Monday's Premier League clash with Liverpool.
The Red Devils are bottom of the table following back-to-back defeats to Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford, and Ten Hag is likely to make changes to his back four following the 4-0 loss to the latter last weekend.
Raphael Varane and Tyrell Malacia could come in for Maguire and Luke Shaw, with Lisandro Martinez set to start again despite being substituted at the interval against Brentford last time out.
Fred could again edge out Scott McTominay to start alongside Bruno Fernandes and Christian Eriksen in midfield, while Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford are likely to continue in the wide positions despite their struggles in the early stages of the campaign.
Ten Hag has a big decision to make when it comes to Cristiano Ronaldo, who played the full 90 minutes against Brentford after coming off the bench against Brighton.
The 37-year-old continues to be linked with a move away from Old Trafford, and his spot is under threat following the return to fitness of Anthony Martial.
The Man United boss is likely to be cautious when it comes to Martial, though, with the Frenchman recently battling a hamstring problem, so Ronaldo could operate at the tip of the attack once again.
Brandon Williams, Facundo Pellistri and Victor Lindelof remain on the sidelines for the Red Devils, while Mason Greenwood is still suspended.
Manchester United possible starting lineup: De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia; Fernandes, Fred, Eriksen; Sancho, Ronaldo, Rashford
