Manchester United vs Stoke City starting line-ups confirmed

Kevin Beirne

Manchester United will look to put their recent troubles behind them when they host Stoke City on Tuesday night.

The Potters have proven to be more than capable of taking on the big boys this season with wins over Chelsea and Manchester City, although their trips away from the Brittania Stadium have proven somewhat less successful.

United fans were furious at the lack of new arrivals to Old Trafford during January, as Louis van Gaal’s side have won just two of their last ten league games.

Van Gaal has named a team that is as close to full strength as possible, as once again Anthony Martial starts while Memphis Depay must be content with a place on the bench.

Meanwhile, Peter Crouch starts up front for Stoke while Xherdan Shaqiri misses out on a starting berth.
