Wagner makes three changes to starting XI
Head Coach David Wagner has made three changes to the starting XI for today’s Premier League game against Manchester United; 3pm kick-off at Old Trafford.
Chris Löwe is unavailable for the game due to a slight groin injury, whilst Aaron Mooy and Steve Mounié take spots among the substitutes at the Theatre of Dreams this afternoon.
Former Manchester City player Tommy Smith returns to make his first appearance in four games and captains the side today, whilst Rajiv van La Parra and Collin Quaner – who both appeared as substitutes against Liverpool FC on Tuesday night – return to the starting line-up.
