Man United XI vs Leicester: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League game today

Alex Young @alexwsyoung1 September 2022

Cristiano Ronaldo is once again on the bench for Manchester United in their Premier League clash at Leicester on transfer deadline day, as the game comes too soon for new signing Antony.

Back-to-back wins has changed the mood around the club after a dismal start to their latest new era under Erik ten Hag, results which coincided with both Ronaldo and club captain Harry Maguire being dropped.

United face table-topping Arsenal on Sunday before beginning their Europa League campaign four days later, meaning games are coming thick and fast for the foreseeable. However, Ten Hag has opted not to shuffle his pack and kept faith with the players that have produced an upturn in form.

That means Casemiro is among the substitutes, after playing 10 minutes against Southampton, with Scott McTominay keeping his place in midfield.

Anthony Martial misses out on the squad completely at the King Power Stadium this evening. Antony is not involved after officially completing his £84million move from Ajax on deadline day.

Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia, McTominay, Eriksen, Elanga, Fernandes, Sancho, Rashford

Subs: Heaton, Kovar, Lindelof, Maguire, Casemiro, Fred, Van de Beek, Garnacho, Ronaldo
