Manchester United are preparing for their fourth and final tour game outside Europe as they face Aston Villa in Perth, with Erik ten Hag aiming to make it four wins from as many games in his maiden summer.

Ten Hag has made just two changes from the side that comfortably won against Crystal Palace earlier this week, with Luke Shaw and Donny van de Beek replacing Tyrell Malacia and Scott McTominay.

The 90-minute affair with Aston Villa is Van de Beek’s first start of the tour and he will be eager to impress ahead of the new season.

Further up the pitch, United’s free-scoring trio keeps their places and another couple of goals between them would cap off a flawless tour so far.

United will travel back to Manchester after the game against Steven Gerrard’s side before a friendly against Atletico Madrid in Oslo next week.

Manchester United lineup (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Dalot, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw; Van de Beek, Fred; Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial
