(Manchester United News)
Robin van Persie, James Wilson, Adnan Januzaj, Rafael and Jonny Evans have all been included in the Manchester United squad for tonight's Under-21 fixture at Leicester City (kick-off 19:00 BST).
Rafael, van Persie and Januzaj were among the substitutes for Saturday's Barclays Premier League defeat to Chelsea, with the latter coming on as a 70th-minute replacement for Juan Mata. Van Persie has yet to make his comeback from the ankle injury he sustained during February's clash with Swansea City.
Louis van Gaal has maintained that his first-team stars need match rhythm after a spell on the sidelines and van Persie will hope to prove his fitness ahead of Sunday's trip to Everton. The game could also give Jonny Evans his first run-out since Newcastle away on 4 March, following his six-match suspension.
United Under-21s squad: Rafael, Jonny Evans, Robin van Persie, Adnan Januzaj, James Wilson, Tyler Blackett, Ben Amos, Andy Kellett, Joel Pereira, Liam Grimshaw, Sean Goss, Donald Love, Tom Thorpe, Joe Rothwell, James Weir, Matthew Willock, Ashley Fletcher, Sadiq El Fitouri, Josh Harrop.
