MANCHESTER UNITED could name an unchanged Premier League team for their clash with Brighton – despite injury fears to Scott McTominay and Victor Lindelof.

McTominay picked up a knock to the ankle during Thursday's 3-0 win over Partizan Belgrade and was taken off with 15 minutes still to play.

Lindelof missed the Europa League game entirely with a foot injury – but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is confident they will both make the pitch against Brighton.

Asked if any players could return this weekend, the United boss said: "Hopefully Scott. Hopefully Victor as well.

"He hasn’t trained this week. It’s his foot."

Meanwhile, Paul Pogba is definitely out with an ankle injury, having missed nine of the last 11 matches – and it thought to be ruled out until December at the earliest.

Nemanja Matic and Angel Gomes are both also ruled out, leaving United in a real predicament in the heart of midfield.

Should McTominay fail a late fitness test, Solskjaer may be forced to start youngster James Garner in heart of midfield – or drop Andreas Pereira deeper – alongside Fred.
