Spanish midfielder Ander Herrera makes his first start of the season as both summer signings Morgan Schneiderlin and Bastian Schweinsteiger drop to the substitutes bench.
Meanwhile captain Wayne Rooney leads the line once again and will be hoping to end a run of 10 games without a goal for the club.
The Red Devils head into the clash in Belgium with a two-goal advantage as Marouane Fellaini’s last-minute header in the first leg at Old Trafford last week has left them with one foot in the group stages and will be in full control of the tie if they score first.
