Watch live Academy games on MUTV this weekend

The Under-23s are up first in front of our cameras, playing in the popular Friday-night slot as Everton make the short trip from Merseyside to Leigh Sports Village.

The Premier League 2 fixture kicks off at 19:00 BST. MUTV’s exclusive coverage, including the team news and featuring former United winger Ben Thornley, begins 30 minutes beforehand.

Last time out in PL2, the Reds raced into a handsome 3-1 lead away to Arsenal at Borehamwood, with Arnau Puigmal firing home in only the third minute.

Shortly after the break, the Spanish midfielder grabbed his second goal and Durham-born striker Joe Hugill joined him on the scoresheet.
