Defenders: Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, Ashley Young

Aaron Wan-Bissaka should be fit to continue as right back. He has impressed so far and tops the Premier League charts having notched 26 successful tackles in four games. He had to withdraw from the England squad due a back problem but is expected to be fit for the Leicester match.

Harry Maguire, who has started all four games in the league, is probably the first name on the defensive sheet. He is one of the few leaders in the side and the responsibility will be on him to control that back four. Victor Lindelof scored and impressed on international duty and should complete the central-defence partnership.

Given Luke Shaw's injury history, Solskjaer is unlikely to risk him unless he is 100% fit. Ashley Young, who was not involved in the international break will continue to be deputed on the left back position. His versatility has really given United options in both full back flanks. So far, he has done little wrong to warrant dropping to the bench. Diogo Dalot, who can also play at left-back, will be eased back into the team after facing an injury setback of his own.
