That was after they romped to a 3-0 semi-final first leg lead at the City Ground last week.
Despite that, Erik ten Hag refused to take any risks tonight back at Old Trafford as he named a strong line-up.
And even with the tie essentially already done and dusted, he still called upon Marcus Rashford from the bench.
