Team News: Edinson Cavani, Cristiano Ronaldo both start for Manchester United at Tottenham Hotspur

Edinson Cavani and Cristiano Ronaldo both start for Manchester United in Saturday’s Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur in North London.

Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has changed his formation following the 5-0 defeat to Liverpool last time out, with fit-again Raphael Varane returning in a back three alongside Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw will operate in the wing-back positions for the visitors, with Scott McTominay and Fred continuing in the middle of the park.

Bruno Fernandes will seemingly operate just ahead of the central midfield two, while Cavani has been introduced into the starting XI alongside Ronaldo as part of a front two.

Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford have dropped out of the starting XI and join Jadon Sancho on the bench, while Jesse Lingard is also among those in reserve.

Solskjaer came under immense pressure following the five-goal loss to Liverpool, but the Norwegian will lead the team into the clash in North London, where Man United will be aiming to respond after a tough week.

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Lindelof, Maguire, Varane; Wan-Bissaka, McTominay, Fred, Shaw; Fernandes; Ronaldo, Cavani
