Manchester United XI vs Chelsea: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League today

Marc Mayo22 October 2022

Marcus Rahshford and Casemiro both start for Manchester United at Chelsea today.

Cristiano Ronaldo left Old Trafford early during the midweek win over Tottenham, prompting Erik ten Hag to stand him down from duty this weekend. The 37-year-old is understood to be training alone for the rest of the week.

Ronaldo later admitted on Instagram that “sometimes the heat of the moment gets the best of us” and vowed to do all he could to try and win back his place in the starting line-up.

United came through the Old Trafford victory without any fresh injury concerns, ensuring Erik ten Hag has most of his squad to choose from.

After a bout of illness, Christian Eriksen came off the bench and now starts in west London.

Harry Maguire (thigh), Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Donny van de Beek (muscle) are out and Ten Hag has confirmed Anthony Martial (back) remains unavailable.

The rest of the team rather picks itself with Luke Shaw ahead of Tyrell Malacia at left-back and Jadon Sancho set to keep Anthony Elanga out on the wing.

Starting Manchester United XI: De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martínez, Shaw, Casemiro, Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes, Antony, Sancho, Rashford.
