Fixture: Manchester United vs Stoke City
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 12:00 (UK time)
Manchester United have officially announced their starting eleven and substitutes to play host to Stoke City in a Premier League fixture at Old Trafford today.
Jose Mourinho's men are on a run of three consecutive wins, however only one of those games came in the Premier League, with one apiece in the Europa League and the EFL Cup. The Portuguese will be keen for his side to take advantage of Stoke's troubles, with the Potters rock bottom of the league standings.
Looking to pick up all three points on home turf, Mourinho picks Zlatan Ibrahimovic to lead the line, with support from Juan Mata, Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard. Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba will look to dominate in midfield, with Marouane Fellaini on the bench. Chris Smalling wears the captain's armband and partners Eric Bailly in the centre of defence.
Wayne Rooney is on the bench if Mourinho needs to throw him on, while Anthony Martial and Memphis Depay represent other attacking options for the Portuguese to use.
Manchester United Team vs Stoke City
De Gea, Valencia, Bailly, Smalling (c), Blind, Pogba, Herrera, Lingard, Mata, Rashford, Ibrahimovic
