Sports Mole looks at how Manchester United could line up in Saturday's Premier League clash with West Ham United.

Manchester United will be boosted by the return of their captain for Saturday's Premier League clash against West Ham United, with Bruno Fernandes available again following a suspension.

Fernandes will be back in the XI this weekend, potentially at the expense of Sofyan Amrabat, as Kobbie Mainoo was outstanding in the Man United midfield against Liverpool last time out.

There will have to be a change at the back, with Diogo Dalot sent off late on against the Reds, so Aaron Wan-Bissaka is in line to come into the side.

Marcus Rashford might be forced to accept a spot on the bench once again, though, with Antony and Alejandro Garnacho again expected to support Rasmus Hojlund, who is still waiting for his first goal in the Premier League.

Anthony Martial could be back in the squad following illness, while Christian Eriksen and Amad Diallo have returned to training, but Victor Lindelof is out following a minor operation.

Erik ten Hag's side still have a number of other absentees, with Tyrell Malacia, Harry Maguire, Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez and Mason Mount all injured.

Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho is still not being considered for selection due to his falling-out with the manager.

Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are set to again line up in the middle of the defence against West Ham due to their impressive performances in the goalless draw with Liverpool.

Manchester United possible starting lineup: Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Evans, Shaw; Mainoo, McTominay; Antony, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund
