MANCHESTER UNITED could make just one change from the team which stunned rivals City in last weekend's derby for Sunday's clash with Everton.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may be forced into replacing the resurgent Jesse Lingard with Andreas Pereira or Mason Greenwood.

The England star picked up a knock in training and missed the the 4-0 Europa League drubbing of AZ Alkmaar on Thursday night.

Pereira, who played in the win over the Dutch side, could start in the No10 spot.

But Marcus Rashford could play there, with Thursday's hero Greenwood given the nod up front.

The young forward, 18, scored twice in the Europa League rout and Solskjaer could reward him with a run in the first-team.

Alternatively, Martial may be left out of the team to accommodate Greenwood in his preferred striking role, with Pereira playing off him.

David De Gea is certain to start in goal, with Solskjaer set to name a full-strength back-four.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw are all set to start once more after their impressive showing against Man City.

But the big talking point would be the inclusion of Greenwood - with Solskjaer quick to heap praise on the youngster after Thursday's game.

The United boss said: "He's different class as a finisher, if there's anything around the box you expect him to get a shot off and on target.

"He's good at creating space for himself and right foot, left foot it doesn't matter. I'm very pleased with his performance.
