Ruben Amorim has named his starting XI for this evening’s 8pm kick-off against Southampton. It’s a return to Premier League action and a return to home comforts for Manchester United tonight, having just played out back-to-back away games – the latter being an FA Cup clash at the Emirates.

Manchester United hope to win their first Premier League match in a month when they host last-place Southampton.

Amorim would like United to build up with a genuine three at the back, rather than the four it has been when protection is the first priority. At Anfield, United took the lead because Martinez sensed a moment to press high, snapping into Mohamed Salah to win the ball and then stay up to receive Fernandes’ slipped pass.

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim says his team needs time to "build a different way of playing". Since Amorim's arrival in November, the Red Devils have impressed most in away games against big sides - drawing at Anfield and winning 2-1 at Etihad Stadium in the Premier League before beating Arsenal on penalties in the FA Cup.
