The Premier League has granted United permission to hold a minute’s silence before kick-off, with players also set to wear black armbands. Two people were killed in the attack, while three others remain in hospital.
United boss Ruben Amorim said: “It’s a crazy world that we are living in the moment, a lot of these things are happening. Of course, our sympathy for the victims, and we will pay tribute tomorrow.”

The tragedy has drawn comparisons with the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, which claimed 22 lives during an Ariana Grande concert. Saturday’s match, kicking off at 3pm BST, will be United’s final fixture before the international break.
