And German Gaffer is likely to keep his 4-2-2-2 formation unbeaten with United as he replaces Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the Theater of Dreams.
After missing the match against Wolves due to suspension, Rangnik is expected to replace his squad with playmaker Bruno Fernandes available for selection.
Speaking on Friday, ex-RB Leipzip Mager said: “We have Bruno back against Wolves and a lot of options. We have enough other options up front.”
Centre-back Eric Bailly was forced against Bruno Lage’s team due to fatigue, and will now fly to Cameroon to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations.
However, the game may come very soon for defender Viktor Lindelof, who has recently recovered from the coronavirus.
Rangnik, however, has said that he should be physically prepared to be in contention.

In his pre-match press conference, he commented: “I hope Viktor can return.
“Under normal circumstances, if the next test is negative, the PCR test is negative, he should be able to return for this game.
“He doesn’t have any symptoms so he shouldn’t have any physical problems for that game.”
Here SunSport takes a look at how United could start against Wolves.
Arguably the club’s player of the season, Spanish goalkeeper David de Gea will certainly keep his place among the blackjack.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka is likely to slot into the right-back, with Luke Shaw to retain his spot on the left.
Rafael Varane may come in for the bailey for fellow captain Harry Maguire at the heart of the defence.
Fred could then replace defensive midfielder Nemanja Matic in the starting XI to play alongside Scott McTominay.
Mason Greenwood could be dropped for Fernandes, with Jadon Sancho joining the line-up again.
And Uruguayan international Cavani could once again lead the joint attack with Ronaldo.
