Altai Bindyr started in goal for Manchester United as they begin their FA Cup defense in a difficult away win against Arsenal today.
This will be the Red Devils’ second FA Cup appearance after making his debut against Newport County under Erik Ten Hag last season.
The defensive line is Matthias de Ligt, Harry Maguire, and Lisandro Martinez.
Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans and Luke Shaw are all injured.
Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui are playing as wing-backs as usual, with Manuel Ugarte and Kobbie Mainoo in central midfield.
Up front, Rasmus Hojlund leads the line, supported by Bruno Fernandes and Alexander Garnacho.
Ahmad was left out of the starting XI after struggling with injury in midweek, but was fit enough to earn a place on the bench.
So there are only two changes to the side that performed so well against Liverpool in the previous game.
Mason Mount remains injured and Marcus Rashford is once again left out of the squad.
Amad’s substitute bench includes Andre Onana, Leny Yoro, Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen, Casemiro, Josh Zirkzee, Antony and Toby Collyer.
Kick-off at the Emirates is 3pm (GMT). If the match ends in a draw after 90 minutes, extra time and penalties will be applied.
