Aston Villa
Villa will again be missing Boubacar Kamara, Ludwig Augustinsson and Diego Carlos on Sunday through injury, but Emiliano Martinez should be between the sticks, with the goalkeeper recovering from the head injury that forced him off against Newcastle.
Emery will not have had long to assess his players before selecting a starting side, so there are unlikely to be any major surprises when it comes to his XI for this contest.
Ollie Watkins and Danny Ings should both again be in the side, while Leon Bailey is expected to feature in a wide area for the hosts.
John McGinn and Lucas Digne could both earn recalls, with Ashley Young and Emiliano Buendia potentially the two players to drop out of the starting side following the defeat at St James' Park.
Aston Villa possible starting lineup:
E Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne; Dendoncker, Luiz, McGinn; Watkins, Ings, Bailey
Manchester United
As for Man United, Ten Hag has admitted that he does not know whether Anthony Martial, Jadon Sancho and Antony will be available for selection this weekend.
Martial is back in training as he bids to recover from a back problem and could make the bench, while Sancho (illness) and Antony (knock) could overcome their issues to feature, with the latter believed to have the best chance of coming into the XI at Villa Park.
Bruno Fernandes is suspended, which could open the door for Fred to start, while Brandon Williams, Axel Tuanzebe and Raphael Varane remain unavailable through injury.
Ten Hag has a big decision to make when it comes to the middle of his defence, and Victor Lindelof could ultimately get the nod over Harry Maguire to start alongside Lisandro Martinez.
Rashford was a surprise substitute against Real Sociedad but is expected to be back in the XI here, while Cristiano Ronaldo, who has nine career goals against Villa, should also start.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Dalot, Lindelof, L Martinez, Shaw; Fred, Casemiro, Eriksen; Antony, Ronaldo, Rashford
