Erik ten Hag has named his Manchester United side to face Brentford, with Cristiano Ronaldo coming back into the side and starting up front.

Cristiano Ronaldo coming in is Ten Hag’s only change from the line-up that lost 2-1 to Brighton on the opening weekend, as Scott McTominay drops out and Fred forms a midfield two with Christian Eriksen.

David de Gea is in goal, and in front of him is a back four of Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, and Diogo Dalot.

Bruno Fernandes will play in-behind Ronaldo at striker, with Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho occupying the wings.

New signing Tyrell Malacia from Feyenoord makes the bench, alongside Raphael Varane, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, James Garner, Donny van de Beek, Anthony Elanga, and Alejandro Garnacho.
