Jose Mourinho has chosen not to start Marcus Rashford on his twentieth birthday as Manchester United host Benfica in the UEFA Champions League.

Anthony Martial’s winner against Tottenham seems to have earned him a start against Benfica as the Frenchman replaces Marcus Rashford in the lineup. Also coming in, are Scott McTominay and Jesse Lingard. No place for Victor Lindelof in the lineup though, unlike the other Champions League encounters thus far.

All eyes will be on Romelu Lukaku to finally reopen the floodgates after what has been a quiet few weeks in front of goal for the Belgian.
