Team News: Two defensive changes for Manchester United's visit of Burnley

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has made two changes to his defence for their Premier League visit of Burnley this evening.

One of them is enforced, with Luke Shaw suspended following his late red card in the 1-1 draw with West Ham United at Upton Park on Sunday.

Marcos Rojo is shifted to left-back to fill that void, with Jonny Evans recalled in the centre and Paddy McNair preferred to Antonio Valencia on the right side.

Radamel Falcao and Robin van Persie continue their somewhat criticised strike partnership, meaning that Wayne Rooney will again captain the team from midfield.

Burnley are forced to alter their starting lineup for the first time in 11 top-flight games because of Dean Marney's season-ending injury sustained in the 2-2 draw with West Bromwich Albion at the weekend.

Michael Kightly comes into midfield and will play out wide, with Scott Arfield partnering ex-United trainee David Jones in the middle. Another former Red Devil features in defence as Will Keane keeps Michael Duff out.

Man United: De Gea; McNair, Jones, Evans, Rojo; Blind, Di Maria, Januzaj, Rooney; Van Persie, Falcao Subs: Valdes, Smalling, Valencia, Fellaini, Herrera, Mata, Wilson

Burnley: Heaton; Trippier, Keane, Shackell, Mee; Boyd, Arfield, Jones, Kightly; Barnes, Ings Subs: Gilks, Duff, Lafferty, Wallace, Reid, Vokes, Jutkiewicz
