This article is more than 2 years old

After losses to Young Boys in the Champions League and West Ham in the Carabao Cup and, considering Manchester United’s star-laden squad, Ole Gunnar Solskjær could use a win, in a game brought forward from 3pm because of a Courteeners concert at the other Old Trafford.
