Manchester United take on reigning Premier League champions Chelsea at Old Trafford Stadium on Sunday.

Jose Mourinho is missing six first-team players heading into the clash.

Ander Herrera, Daley Blind, Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marouane Fellaini are all out.

Galatasaray have been closely linked with Fellaini who will be a free agent at the end of the season unless he strikes a contract extension.

Scott McTominay will start again due to Ander Herrera suffering a hamstring injury.

Paul Pogba returns to the starting lineup after being named as a substitute against Sevilla in the Champions League mid-week.

Mourinho has kept a four-man defence, there were reports that he would field three-men at the back but he appears to have abandoned those plans as a result of Phil Jones not making the cut.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte meanwhile has picked star names Kanta, Willian, Morata and Hazard.

United have kept a clean sheet in 11 of their last 14 Premier League games.

The Red Devils head into the clash with an impressive home record losing just one of their last 30 games at Old Trafford.
