# Predicted United XI vs Zorya Luhansk

Manchester United will be high on confidence heading into their Europa League fixture against Ukrainian side Zorya Luhansk on Thursday night, having beaten reigning Premier League champions Leicester City 4-1 on Saturday.

All four of those goals came towards the end of the first half at Old Trafford, with Paul Pogba among the scorers, heading in what was his first goal for the Red Devils.

Pogba and Mata dominated things between them, with Daley Blind putting in a fantastic performance down the left in the absence of the injured Luke Shaw.

We know that Shaw and long-term absentee Phil Jones are both out of Thursday’s game against Zorya. Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who has scored four goals in three games against Zorya, during his time with Shakhtar Donetsk, has also been ruled out by the manager, although he has returned to full training with the first team and should be match-ready soon.

So who will start for Mourinho’s United on Thursday night? Here is our predicted starting eleven…
