Two players who will likely feature are Shola Shoretire and Diallo. The latter has featured during their Europa League campaign on occasions but is yet to play in the Premier League.

Shoretire, meanwhile, has two appearances to his name against Newcastle in the Premier League and Sociedad in the Europa League.

Speaking to the club’s official website, Solskjaer confirmed they would be in the matchday squad.

“They’re in contention [Amad and Shoretire] yeah, definitely and they’re in the first team squad, they’re training with us every day so I would think that some of the young boys will get an appearance definitely.
