Boss Erik ten Hag donned a bright red jumper for the journey down south, during which he’ll have much to ponder.

Not among them, however, were injured duo Diogo Dalot and Anthony Martial.

The pair are set to miss the crunch clash with respective injuries.

Also absent was Brazilian star Casemiro.
