Manchester United head to Luton Town on Tuesday night looking to bounce back from weekend disappointment.

The Red Devils began their 2020/21 season with a poor home defeat to Crystal Palace in the Premier League, and now look to the EFL Cup and a third-round tie as a chance to kick-start their campaign.

Luton have won both their Championship games so far this term and knocked out Reading in the second round of the EFL Cup.

United are likely to rotate to an extent, though have four days until their next league game at Brighton.

Team news

Luton have a full squad to pick from after three straight wins this season.

United are without Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones. They will make changes, with the likes of Dean Henderson and Donny van de Beek certain to be handed starts and far more could be made after a dismal defeat on Saturday.

Predicted lineups

Luton: Sluga; Cranie, Pearson, Bradley, Norrington-Davies; Berry, Mpanzu, Rea; Cornick, Collins, Lee.

Man United: Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Mengi, Williams; Fred, van de Beek; Greenwood, Lingard, Mata; Ighalo.

Odds

Luton: 12/1

Draw: 11/2

Man United: 5/18

Prediction

Much will depend on how strong a side Ole Gunnar Solskjaer decides to put out, but with places up for grabs and squad members needing fitness, it could be an uncomfortably close night for the Premier League side. Luton 1-2 Man United
