Manchester United vs Luton live updates - team news and Raphael Varane latest for Premier League fixture

Manchester United take on newly promoted Luton Town at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

United's hopes of progressing to the knockout rounds of the Champions League took a major blow in midweek following a 4-3 loss against FC Copenhagen and a win against Luton before the international break is required.

Erik ten Hag's side have a strong record against teams towards the bottom half of the table and Luton were the favourites to be relegated at the start of the campaign, although they did draw against Liverpool at the weekend.

Regarding the team news, Marcus Rashford's red card in the Champions League has no impact on his availability in the league and Jonny Evans, who went off injured against Copenhagen, has been ruled out of the match.
