Latest MU vs Chelsea squad information
Manchester United's injury situation remains unchanged, with Antony (ankle), Tyrell Malacia (knee), Harry Maguire (calf), Mason Mount (minor injury), Luke Shaw (calf), Leny Yoro (foot) and Kobbie Mainoo (thigh) all absent for Sunday's game.
In particular, Christian Eriksen unexpectedly withdrew from the squad ahead of the match against Leicester for unspecified reasons, leaving his ability to play against Chelsea still uncertain. The caretaker legend does not need to make major changes to the squad, but can use Noussair Mazraoui and Rasmus Hojlund in place of Victor Lindelof and Joshua Zirkzee, while Andre Onana will replace Altay Bayindir in goal.
In contrast, Chelsea's medical team have only one player to look after, Omari Kellyman, with a hamstring injury, and there is no timetable for his return. Jadon Sancho has been overlooked in recent games, and the Red Devils loanee is unable to play due to a rule not to face his parent club, leaving Pedro Neto to continue on the left wing.
Neto will be one of 11 changes made by Maresca from the defeat, while Enzo Fernandez has been criticised and will make way for Romeo Lavia, joining Moises Caicedo in the centre of the park at Old Trafford.
Latest expected lineup MU vs Chelsea
Manchester United:
Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Martinez, Dalot; Casemiro, Ugarte; Rashford, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund

Latest football commentary MU vs Chelsea
The Old Trafford hierarchy are finalising the appointment of Ruben Amorim as manager, while Van Nistelrooy will be hoping to replicate his impressive Carabao Cup win over Leicester. Manchester United scored seven goals in their previous game, with Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes (two) and Alejandro Garnacho scoring, showing improvement under the new manager.
However, Erik ten Hag, who was left jobless after the 2-1 defeat to West Ham, cannot be happy with the team's poor form, with United scoring just eight goals in nine Premier League games. They are one of five teams without 10 goals this season, along with Newcastle, Crystal Palace, Southampton and Ipswich.
Chelsea, managed by Enzo Maresca, needed no instruction to score, with Cole Palmer the standout against Newcastle. However, Maresca made all 11 changes for the replay and the reserves could not maintain their form, conceding a goal from Alexander Isak and an Axel Disasi own goal.
Despite their Carabao Cup exit leaving some fans unhappy, Chelsea are currently fifth in the Premier League, just one point behind Arsenal and Aston Villa. Remarkably, Chelsea have scored in seven consecutive away games, although a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool ended a five-match winning streak.
Recent clashes between Chelsea and Man United have been more dramatic, with the Red Devils winning 4-1 at Old Trafford in 2022-23 and Chelsea winning 4-3 at Stamford Bridge this season. While Chelsea have not been great at St James' Park, Maresca's first team will be sharper than the reserves at Old Trafford. If recent performances are any indication, Sunday's game promises to be a goal-filled affair.
