Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Louis van Gaal has kept British record signing Angel Di Maria on the bench for the game against Aston Villa.
The Manchester United manager has made just one change to the team that beat Liverpool at Anfield a couple of weeks ago, with Marcos Rojo coming in for centre-back Chris Smalling.
The England man was forced off with illness against Italy earlier this week and has not recovered in time to play Tim Sherwood's men.
Van Gaal continues with Daley Blind and Antonio Valencia at the full-back spots, while Marouane Fellaini retains his place up front with Wayne Rooney, with Robin van Persie still out.
For Aston Villa, Tim Sherwood makes three changes to the team that lost to Swansea City. Andreas Weimann comes in for Scott Sinclair, Carlos Sanchez is in for Tom Cleverley and Matthew Lowton for Leandro Bacuna.
LINE-UPS:
Manchester United: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Blind, Carrick, Herrera, Mata, Fellaini, Young, Rooney.
Subs: Valdes, Rafael, McNair, Pereira, Januzaj, Di Maria, Falcao.
Aston Villa: Guzan, Hutton, Okore, Clark, Lowton, Delph, Sanchez, N’Zogbia, Weimann, Agbonlahor, Benteke.
