Leny Yoro is yet to start in a Manchester United win over a current Premier League side since joining the Red Devils last summer.
The defender came close to scoring his first Premier League goal during Man United’s 1-1 draw with Fulham on Sunday, 24 August.
However, his header heavily deflected off Fulham striker Rodrigo Muniz, who was instead credited with an own goal.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are still searching for their first win of the season, ahead of their Carabao Cup clash with League Two side Grimsby Town on Wednesday, 27 August.

Ruben Amorim has been busy in the transfer market, as Man United have signed Benjamin Sesko as well as players like Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.
However, the Red Devils boss still has plenty of work to do before the transfer window shuts.
For example, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, and Antony are still at Old Trafford even though the North West club want to facilitate their exits.

Meanwhile, Man United are interested in Adam Wharton, showing Amorim’s desire to sign a new midfielder this summer.
Furthermore, Altay Bayindir made a major error when the Old Trafford side were beaten 1-0 by Arsenal in the Premier League’s opening weekend, showing that Amorim still needs an upgrade on his current goalkeeper, while last season’s first-choice, Andre Onana, was on the bench against Fulham.
Manchester United have a major opportunity to progress to the next round of the Carabao Cup when they take on Grimsby Town in their next game.
But another tough campaign could be on the horizon if they don’t end the transfer window strongly.
