Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Manchester United could line up for Saturday's Premier League clash with Burnley.

Manchester United duo Raphael Varane and Mason Mount could potentially come back into contention for the Red Devils' Premier League showdown with Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday evening.

The pair were seen taking part in team training prior to Wednesday's 4-3 Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich, although they were ultimately not passed fit for the contest at the Allianz Arena.

Harry Maguire (muscle) was forced to miss that seven-goal classic as well, joining Aaron Wan-Bissaka (thigh), Tyrell Malacia (knee), Sofyan Amrabat (back), Kobbie Mainoo (ankle), Antony (personal), Amad Diallo (knee) and Jadon Sancho (disciplinary) on Man United's enviable list of absentees, but the Englishman is now training with the team alongside Amrabat.

Maguire may therefore be given the green light to travel for Saturday's game, but a fit-again Varane should partner Lisandro Martinez either way, thereby demoting Victor Lindelof to the bench.

Andre Onana's miserable start to life at Old Trafford continued with a howler for Leroy Sane's opening goal on Wednesday, but the Cameroonian's place in goal is under no threat, even with Tom Heaton now back from a calf strain.

Shaw and Wan-Bissaka's absences means that Diogo Dalot and Sergio Reguilon are virtually guaranteed starts in the full-back areas, and the same can be said for Casemiro in the middle, but Scott McTominay's fresh legs may be utilised over Christian Eriksen.

Mount could also threaten Facundo Pellistri's spot on the right, but Alejandro Garnacho seems a more likely candidate to join Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Hojlund up top.

Manchester United possible starting lineup: Onana; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Reguilon; Casemiro, McTominay; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund
