Man Utd v Newcastle (Fri, 20:00 GMT)
Manchester United
Image source, PA MediaManchester United have barely suffered an injury so far this season. Now Ruben Amorim has lost his most important player Bruno Fernandes, just as Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui have gone to the Africa Cup of Nations.
Kobbie Mainoo missed the defeat at Aston Villa with a calf problem and Amorim said “we must find different situations” in midfield.
Casemiro is returning from a one-match ban, while Jack Fletcher – son of former United title winner Darren – and fellow 18-year-old Shea Lacey both came on for their first-team debuts at Villa.
“It is really strange,” said Amorim after Sunday’s game. “During this year, especially at this time, we have so many problems, but we have to cope with that. Fletcher did his first game, so that is good news, Lacey the same, so we will try to find solutions and go for the next game.”
