Fixture: Southampton vs Manchester United
Competition: Premier League
Kick-off: 15:00 (UK time)

Manchester United have officially confirmed their starting line-up and substitutes to take on Southampton in an away Premier League game this afternoon.

The Red Devils are level on points at the top of the table with neighbours Manchester City and will not want any slip-ups on the south coast.




Jose Mourinho remains without Marcos Rojo and Paul Pogba, but has no new injury concerns.

Manchester United have David de Gea in goal and at the back Mourinho opts for Eric Bailly and Phil Jones as the central defensive pairing. Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young are full-backs, with Nemanja Matic looking to control midfield. Juan Mata plays, as do Marouane Fellaini and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Marcus Rashford and Romelu Lukaku will be aiming to be goal threats.

If the Portuguese wants to make changes during the course of the 90 minutes then he can look to his bench and call for Anthony Martial, with Jesse Lingard another option.
