Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag will hope to have Antony, Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho back in contention for Sunday's Premier League clash with Aston Villa.

Antony has missed the team's last two matches due to a knock that he picked up in training, and the Brazil international is thought to have the best chance of returning to the XI for this match.

Sancho, meanwhile, was absent against Real Sociedad in the Europa League on Thursday through illness, but the Englishman could be back in the squad for this contest.

Martial has been missing for almost one month due to a back injury, but he has recently been back in training and has a chance of returning to the squad for this match.

Axel Tuanzebe, Brandon Williams and Raphael Varane remain unavailable for selection through injury, while Bruno Fernandes is out of this contest due to suspension.

As a result, there could be a start in midfield for Fred, although Scott McTominay is another option to feature alongside Christian Eriksen and Casemiro in the middle.

Marcus Rashford was a surprise substitute against Real Sociedad but should be back in the XI here, while Cristiano Ronaldo is also expected to feature in the final third of the field.

Ten Hag's other big decision will come in the middle of the defence, as he chooses a partner for Lisandro Martinez, and Victor Lindelof, who returned from illness on Thursday, could get the nod over Harry Maguire despite the Englishman's strong performance against West Ham United in the league last weekend.

Manchester United possible starting lineup: De Gea; Dalot, Lindelof, L Martinez, Shaw; Fred, Casemiro, Eriksen; Antony, Ronaldo, Rashford
