Confirmed Manchester United XI vs Barnsley: Manuel Ugarte starts

Erik ten Hag has named his Manchester United starting eleven to face Barnsley in the Carabao Cup third round at Old Trafford this evening.

The manager has already been out on the pitch at Old Trafford to inspect the surface he knows better than most.

He will be hoping his side serves up a good performance that features a cluster of goals, while conceded none, of course.

Altay Bayindir makes his second appearance for the club between the sticks. This means Andre Onana gets a rest before United travel to Crystal Palace on Saturday.

The back four consists of Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Casemiro and Evans.

Toby Collyer appears to be starting in midfield, but could also drop into left-back. He is joined by Manuel Ugarte and Christian Eriksen.

The attack consists of Antony, Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford.
