Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has named a strong team for this evening’s Europa League clash against Viktoria Plzen.
The Portuguese tactician is looking to get back to winning ways after suffering back-to-back Premier League defeats by Arsenal and Nottingham Forest to bring a swift end to his honeymoon period at Old Trafford that had begun with a promising three-game unbeaten stretch including an eventful 3-2 home victory in this competition against Norwegian opponents Bodo/Glimt.

Amorim has largely rotated during the opening few weeks of his tenure and has done so again for United’s trip to Doosan Arena, making five changes to the side that started against Forest at the weekend.
Marcus Rashford is among those who return in a week where there has been fresh doubts cast over his long-term future at the club following recent reports linking him with a move away.
Noussair Mazraoui is also recalled and looks set to line-up in a central defensive three alongside Matthijs De Ligt and Lisandro Martinez. As expected, Tyrell Malacia gets the nod at left wing-back with Diogo Dalot switching to the opposite flank.
Elsewhere, Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund drop to the bench as Joshua Zirkzee leads the line.
Manchester United XI: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez; Dalot, Casemiro, Fernandes, Malacia; Amad, Rashford; Zirkzee
