Obertan starts for Reserves
United fans can finally get a glimpse of summer signing Gabriel Obertan in action tonight, as he lines up for the Reserves in a Manchester Senior Cup tie against Oldham Athletic.
The French winger has been sidelined with spine trouble since his move from Bordeaux, but will start for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side at Hyde United's Ewen Fields as he aims to kickstart his Reds career.
Brazilian full-back Rafael also returns from injury, having sufficiently recovered from shoulder trouble, and he is joined by brother Fabio, Scott Wootton and Oliver Gill in defence. Ben Amos will keep goal.
Matty James, Sam Hewson, Oliver Norwood and Robbie Brady make up the remainder of the midfield with Obertan, while Febian Brandy will lead the line as a lone striker.
Triallist goalkeeper Daniel Lloyd-Western will be on the substitutes' bench, alongside William Keane, Magnus Eikrem and Joshua King.
The match kicks-off at 19:00 BST, with MUTV's live and exclusive coverage beginning at 18:30 BST.

Can't wait to see Obertan play - pitty there is only Brandy starting up top - very defensive. Also a pitty that neither Eikrem nor King are starting.
