Last minute lineup questions
Just under an hour until the lineups are out and there are a few question marks over what the starting XI will be.
Who will the fullbacks be?
Last match, Darmian and Shaw started with Young on the bench having just returned to training the week before. Both Darmian and Shaw had been linked with futures away from the club but Shaw made headlines by scoring his first competitive goal against Leicester while Darmian couldn't secure a move to Italy before their transfer window closed. Will Young come back in the team - and who for? If Shaw was to start today, it would be a big show of faith from Mourinho into a player who was dropped as soon as Valencia and Young returned from injury and suspension last winter.
Pereira or Herrera?
Last match, Pereira did well in the absence of Herrera. Is Pereira now above Herrera in the pecking order for that number 6 role or will Mourinho opt for the experience of Herrera for a tough away game against Brighton?
Last time we played Brighton, we lost 1:0 but half the team which started that match aren't expected to start today.
Where's Sanchez?
It was reported last night that Sanchez did not board the plane for the game against Brighton. It could be that he made his own way there, though unlikely. If he is missing, Lukaku should slot back into the starting lineup but who will join Lukaku and Rashford - Mata, Lingard or Martial? With Mata being the fittest of the three, my guess is him.
