Cristiano Ronaldo is back in the Manchester United XI for Saturday's Premier League clash with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

The Portugal international missed out against Liverpool on Tuesday following the death of his newborn son, but the attacker returned to training on Wednesday and is back in the team this afternoon.

There is no spot in the starting side for club captain Harry Maguire, though, with the England international dropping to the bench amid a difficult spell.

The returning Raphael Varane will feature alongside Victor Lindelof in the middle of the defence, while Scott McTominay is back in midfield after recovering from a foot injury.

Diogo Dalot and Alex Telles will feature in the full-back positions, while Anthony Elanga and Jadon Sancho have been selected alongside Ronaldo in the final third of the field.

Fred, Luke Shaw, Paul Pogba and Edinson Cavani are on the sidelines through injury, while Mason Greenwood is still unavailable due to a club suspension.
