Wolves
After a perfect debut in charge, Wolves boss Pereira may be reluctant to change much, even if Rayan Ait-Nouri is back from suspension.
Matheus Cunha is still yet to hear back from the FA about a potential misconduct charge from the defeat over Ipswich, but a ban somewhere along the line is expected for the Wolves top scorer, who found the net again on Sunday.
Boubacar Traore and Pablo Sarabia are set to return in a couple of weeks, but Mario Lemina could be back much sooner, with Pereira hopeful he can play some part here, after missing the win at Leicester.
Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup:
Jose Sa; Nelson Semedo, Bueno, Toti; R Gomes, J Gomes, Andre, Ait-Nouri; Guedes, Strand Larsen, Cunha
Manchester United
Amorim was coy once more about whether wantaway Marcus Rashford could be involved here after the Bournemouth game, but the reality is that the attacker is unlikely to play for the club again.
Injury-prone duo Mason Mount and Victor Lindelof were both forced off early on against Man City and Spurs respectively, and are set for spells on the sidelines, while Luke Shaw has also suffered another setback which will keep him out.
Matthijs de Ligt missed the defeat over Bournemouth with illness, but he should be fine to return, while Tyrell Malacia is likely to drop out after a tough first half at the weekend.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
Onana; De Ligt, Maguire, Martinez; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Mainoo, Dalot; Amad, Hojlund, Fernandes
Prediction: Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-3 Manchester United
