Manchester United FC are about to face Luton Town in the third round of Carabao Cup later tonight. The Red Devils will be eager to get the first win of the season after their loss to Crystal Palace in the opening game of the Premier League season. Solskjaer has fielded a relatively weak starting XI against Luton Town as he expects to win easily.

The likes of Dean Henderson and Donny Van de Beek get the first starts of their United career. Whereas Eric Bailly, Juan Mata and Odion Ighalo get rare starts for the Red Devils. Jesse Lingard will be tested tonight as talks of his move to Tottenham have surfaced lately as he looks to rejuvenate his career.
United will look to dominate from the onset and will hope to capitalize on the possession dominance they will be having throughout the game. Mata and Van de Beek will be the creators in chief for the Red Devils side who will look to put their pre-season woes away. It is expected of United to win the game handsomely even though Luton Town are tough opposition.
