Such a high-profile double triumph saw the Red Devils vault into the top four and they will be keen to return there today, having dropped to sixth after wins for Chelsea and Liverpool last night. It has also led to speculation that Carrick could yet be named as the full-time successor to Ruben Amorim in the summer, though there is plenty more football to be played before then. United’s hopes of a third consecutive victory have been hit by the absence of Patrick Dorgu through injury, though Joshua Zirkzee is in contention to return.
