Man United XI vs Tottenham: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today
Marcus Rashford is today back for Manchester United in what already feels like a pivotal Premier League clash with Tottenham at Old Trafford.
The 26-year-old was surprisingly left on the bench for last weekend’s 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace, despite scoring three times in his previous two games, with Erik ten Hag citing “rotation” as the reason.

But today he takes the spot of Amad Diallo on the left, with Alejandro Garnacho other flank. Joshua Zirkzee starts up front again as Rasmus Hojlund eases his way back from a hamstring injury.
Elsewhere, Manuel Ugarte makes his first league start for United against Ange Postecoglou’s side. The Uruguayan midfielder has made two substitute appearances so far, with starts in the Carabao Cup and Europa League, but is likely to replace Christian Eriksen in the lineup this afternoon.
United have no new injuries to report as Ten Hag confirmed on Thursday, with long-term absentees Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof and Tyrell Malacia all continuing their recoveries.
