There’s no Ronaldo of course, but the big news from the Manchester United team-sheet is that Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane make their first starts since joining the club this summer.
But the other stand-out detail, which gathers in significance ahead of Ronaldo’s return, is that Mason Greenwood will once again lead the line at Molineux for United this afternoon because Anthony Martial has been demoted to the bench. Daniel James comes in for the Frenchman following his anonymous outing at Southampton last Sunday.
The headline news for the Wolves team news is that there isn’t a headline: the home side are unchanged from the eleven which took on Tottenham last week and were so unfortunate not to take anything from the game.
