Manchester United have handed youngster Marcus Rashford his first Premier League start for this afternoon's visit of Arsenal.

The academy product found the net twice on his club debut against FC Midtjylland in the Europa League last time out, and he is rewarded with another starting berth up top.

David de Gea is welcomed back between the sticks for the Red Devils, having overcome an injury that has seen him sit out the past three games in all competitions.

There is also a place in the starting lineup for Marcos Rojo, with Sergio Romero and Joe Riley the two men to make way for a Red Devils side showing two changes from last time out.

In terms of the visitors, who can close the gap on league leaders Leicester City to two points once more this afternoon, they make a trio of changes from their last outing.

Danny Welbeck, Gabriel and Theo Walcott are welcomed back into the fold, meaning that there is only room for a place on the bench for Olivier Giroud.

Another man to make way for the Gunners is Per Mertesacker, as Arsene Wenger looks towards the pace of the returning Gabriel to deal with the opposition's attacking talents.

Arsenal are winless in their last eight Premier League games at Old Trafford, losing six of those matches.
