Manchester United suffer Marcus Rashford blow as Erik ten Hag explains Jadon Sancho decision

Manchester United are back in action this afternoon when they host Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Erik ten Hag's side put in one of their best performances during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Chelsea, with Scott McTominay scoring both goals. It is now six wins in eight league games for the Reds, who can go level with Manchester City in fourth with another victory.

Bournemouth are in a purple patch of their own, however, having won three of their last four and Ten Hag will be forced into at least one change from the midweek fixture. Victor Lindelof suffered an injury and will not be available.
