Jose Mourinho has named an unchanged side for Manchester United's meeting with Stoke City at Old Trafford this afternoon.

The Red Devils returned to winning ways in the Premier League last weekend courtesy of a 4-1 victory over Leicester City, with the Portuguese opting to stick with the same XI from that impressive win.

That means that captain Wayne Rooney will once again start on the bench for the hosts, as Juan Mata is instead selected to play just off lone striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic at the Theatre of Dreams.

There are four alterations from the Europa League victory over Zorya Luhansk, however - David de Gea, Antonio Valencia, Daley Blind and Ander Herrera all returning to the fold as Mourinho looks to rotate things.

In terms of the visitors, who are without a win here in 40 years, they also remain unchanged from last time out - a 1-1 draw against West Bromwich Albion at the bet365 Stadium eight days ago.

Joe Allen has not trained all week due to a hamstring injury but is deemed fit enough to start in midfield, while Jonathan Walters has recovered from an ankle problem to take Giannelli Imbula's place on the bench.

Manchester United: De Gea, Valencia, Smalling, Bailly, Blind, Herrera, Pogba, Martial, Mata, Rashford, Ibrahimovic
Subs: Romero, Darmian, Carrick, Fellaini, Martial, Memphis, Rooney

Stoke City: Grant, Johnson, Shawcross, Martins Indi, Pieters, Cameron, Whelan, Allen, Shaqiri, Bony, Arnautovic
