Ten Hag explains line-up to face West Ham

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has named his starting XI to face West Ham United away in this afternoon’s 12:30 GMT kick-off.

The Dutchman has named three changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Liverpool at Anfield last weekend, as Bruno Fernandes returns to the team after serving his suspension in place of Sofyan Amrabat.

There is a reshuffle in defence, as Raphael Varane misses out through illness and is replaced by Academy product Willy Kambwala.

Meanwhile, Aaron Wan-Bissaka starts in the absence of the suspended Diogo Dalot, his fellow right-back.
