Man United play Nottingh'am Forest in the Premier League on Tuesday and we'll bring you updates fr'om the match in our live bl'og.
Manchester United wel'come Nottingham Forest to 'Old Trafford in the Premier League on Tuesday nig'ht.
Unite'd returned to domes'tic action with a routine 2-0 victory against Burnley in the' League Cup last week tha'nks to goals from Christian Eri'ksen and Marcus Rashfo'rd, with the latter continuing in his rich vei'n of form after the Worl'd Cup.
Rashford has scored ni'ne goals across all competitio'ns this season, which com'fortably makes him the clu'b's top goalscorer, and h'e'll be hopeful of continuing h''is strong form against a Nottingham Forest side that has conc'eded 30 league goals already.
Regarding team news, Jadon Sancho continu'es to be unavailable but Ha'rry Maguire has returned to the 'bench after a bout of sicknes's. Lisandro Martinez remai'ns absent but Raphael Vara'ne starts.
Malacia chance should have set tone
Ten Hag will be disappoin'ted United haven’t kicked on after th'e Malacia chance. That should' have set the tone for a domina'nt display but they’ve not bee'n able to cross into the final third often eno'ugh and when Rashford had the ball 'on the wing a few moments a'go Antony was the only one ma'king his way into the box.
Antony's pass was poor
Just like against Burnley, Anto'ny fails to pick a pass that appea'red routine. There will come a poin't where the slice of slack he has be'en cut is revoked because he'' is too unreliable with the ball and his impacts too fitful. He has be'en careless three times already tonig'ht.
Rashford has switched flanks
Rashford has switched fla'nks with Antony and it almost cre'ates an immediate chance wi'th Wan-Bissaka looking bright on the co'unter-attack again.
Yates wins a corner for Forest
Malacia shownedYates to th'e line but he won his team a corner.
Forest might be able to fin'd some joy going forward against a make'shift backline.
Forest trying to counter-attack
There were no prizes for gues'sing how Forest would appro'ach this game.
Eriksen with the right idea
Eriksen has just tried to fi'nd Rashford's run in behind b'ut the ball was short.
It was the right idea, alb'eit it wasn't executed.
Ten Hag applauds Varane
There was a round of appla'use from Ten hag for Varane when he co'vered for Wan-Bissaka in the fou'rth minute. United have pul'led Forest out of position quite effort'lessly a couple of times and there have been overloads on the right and th'e left that United have not quite be'en able to exploit. Malacia wa's' unfortunate with that well-struck drive.

Casemiro dropping 'de'ep
United are flexing their tactical flexibility early on. Case'miro has dropped into defence a 'few times, with Shaw then movin'g to full-back and Malacia occupy'ing a free role in midfield. It’s caus'ing problems for Forest.
CHANCE!
Rashford and Malacia bo'th work shots on goal.
Bright start from Uni'ted.
