Patrick Dorgu trained with the squad on Monday for the first time since his hamstring injury but will not be involved, Carrick confirmed. Luke Shaw will not be fit this week, Benjamin Sesko and Manuel Ugarte are out long term, and Marcus Rashford is being assessed day by day. Amad took part in training after being substituted at Chelsea. Leny Yoro has served his European suspension and has a tendon problem that comes and goes, but Carrick said he has been fine.
Lisandro Martínez was sent off at Chelsea for two yellow cards in 90 seconds and is banned domestically, but he is available in the Champions League and is expected to partner Harry Maguire. Carrick said he has no concerns about his commitment, and Matthijs de Ligt is the alternative. Kobbie Mainoo, a substitute at Chelsea, is expected to start alongside Andrey Santos, with Youri Tielemans possibly used centrally and Bruno Fernandes wider. Bryan Mbeumo leads the line, with Matheus Cunha likely on the bench.
