Predicted Starting XI: Preston vs Manchester United

Manchester United’s attentions return to FA Cup action tomorrow night, with a place in the quarter finals at stake. Louis van Gaal’s side, whom are joint favourites to lift the trophy, will be looking for an improved performance against lower league opposition for the third round in a row.

Team selection is crucial here, with Van Gaal looking to give fringe players some much-needed playing time, whilst also picking a strong enough team to win the game comfortably.

Luke Shaw should return at left-back after serving his one-game suspension, whereas there should be rare starts for Marouane Fellaini and Ander Herrera in midfield. James Wilson should get the nod up front alongside Wayne Rooney, and there could well be a debut for Victor Valdes.

Starting XI

Valdes; McNair, Smalling, Rojo, Shaw; Valencia, Herrera, Fellaini, Januzaj; Wilson, Rooney
