Manchester United welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford on Sunday as they look to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

Ruben Amorim's side were dumped out of the Carabao Cup on Thursday evening as goals from Joshua Zirkzee, Amad Diallo and Jonny Evans ultimately proved to be worthless in their 4-3 quarter-finals defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.

They now return to Premier League action looking to improve on their 13th placed position and move back towards the European places over the festive period.

And that starts on Sunday when they take on Andoni Iraola's high-flying Cherries side, who begin the weekend in sixth place.

Amorim has some decisions to make over his starting XI at Old Trafford but United will definitely have to do without defenders Luke Shaw and Victor Lindelof and midfielder Mason Mount through injury.

Andre Onana will replace backup goalkeeper Altay Bayindir in goal, after the Turkish international endured a horror night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Matthijs De Ligt is expected to be back in contention after missing the Spurs defeat through illness but with a busy festive period of fixtures coming up, Amorim may not risk putting him straight back in the side.

As such, Leny Yoro, Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez are expected to make up the back three, despite Evans' late heroics in North London.

Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot are expected to continue in the wing-back roles, with Manuel Ugarte set to partner Kobbie Mainoo at the base of United's midfield.

Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes are expected to flank Rasmus Hojlund up front, despite Zirkzee's goal in the Carabao Cup on Thursday. Marcus Rashford's hiatus from the matchday squad is expected to continue.

United's predicted XI: Onana; Yoro, Maguire, Martinez; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Dalot; Amad, Fernandes; Hojlund
