Team News
Manchester United
Casemiro was seen putting his hands on Hughes's throat during a mass brawl between Man United and Palace's players - sparked by a late Schlupp challenge on Antony - and the Brazilian will serve the first of a three-game ban here.

With Scott McTominay still building up his fitness, a full debut should come the way of Marcel Sabitzer after the Bayern Munich loanee came off the bench on Saturday, while Eagles loanee Jack Butland is eligible to feature once again.

Antony, Anthony Martial, Donny van de Beek and Christian Eriksen are also sidelined for the hosts, who now have Diogo Dalot back in contention, and the fresh-legged Portuguese will push to return over Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Charges of attempted rape, engaging in coercive and controlling behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm against forward Mason Greenwood were recently dropped, but the Red Devils are conducting their own internal review before deciding the 21-year-old's future with the club.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; Sabitzer, Fred; Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford; Weghorst

Leeds
As for Leeds, Robin Koch will return from a ban of his own for the trip to Old Trafford, but Archie Gray, Rodrigo, Stuart Dallas, Sonny Perkins and Adam Forshaw all remain in the infirmary.

On a brighter note, Crysencio Summerville was fit enough for a substitute cameo at the City Ground and may be considered for a recall as Skubala refreshes the Whites attack, with Brenden Aaronson and record signing Georginio Rutter also knocking on the door.

An off day for Marc Roca against Nottingham Forest will also benefit Weston McKennie's chances of coming in for his first start since joining on loan from Juventus.
Leeds United possible starting lineup:
Meslier; Ayling, Koch, Cooper, Wober; Adams, McKennie; Sinisterra, Aaronson, Gnonto; Rutter
Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Leeds United
