Manchester United have handed a first Premier League start to youngster Anthony Martial for today's trip to Southampton.

The Saints have made several changes for today's match, with Maya Yoshida, Oriol Romeu, and Sadio Mane all receiving the nod.

Cedric Soares, Steven Davis, and Jay Rodriguez are the ones to make way.

Southampton: Stekelenburg, Yoshida, Fonte, van Dijk, Targett; Wanyama, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Tadic; Mane, Pelle
Subs: Cedric, Long, S. Davis, Rodriguez, Martina, Juanmi
