Manchester United XI vs Nottingham Forest: Rasmus Hojlund out - Starting lineup and confirmed team news

Manchester United have lost striker Rasmus Hojlund for tonight's game with Nottingham Forest due to illness.

Sofyan Amrabat was also a doubt with a muscle injury, while Anthony Martial has been sidelined with illness. Scott McTominay is expected to return in midfield at Forest with Christian Eriksen and Kobbie Mainoo both struggling at times against Villa.

Two-goal hero Alejandro Garnacho will keep his place, and Marcus Rashford produced a much-improved display on the opposite flank last time out.

The England striker will move into a central position with Hojlund out as Amad Diallo features on the bench.
