Daniel James and Ashley Young return to the starting lineup while Paul Pogba is missing from the matchday squad as Manchester United get set to take on Burnley.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made four changes to the side that beat Newcastle United last time out as Manchester United prepare to lock horns with Burnley at Turf Moor.

David de Gea retains his place in goal, with Sergio Romero being his deputy once again. Solskjaer has made two changes in defence, with an entirely new full-back pairing named in Manchester United captain Ashley Young and Brandon Williams. Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire continue in the central defensive pairing.

Scott McTominay’s injury forces Solskjaer to make one change in midfield, with Nemanja Matic coming into the starting lineup to partner Fred in the double pivot. Oddly enough, there is no sign of Paul Pogba in the matchday squad.

The final change in the starting lineup comes in attack, with Daniel James replacing Mason Greenwood. James starts on the right side of the Manchester United attack, with Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Andreas Pereira keeping their places in the side.

Manchester United Starting XI: de Gea; Young, Lindelof, Maguire, Williams; Fred, Matic; James, Pereira, Rashford; Martial
