Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Tyrell Malacia were recalled to the line-up in place of Raphael Varane, Diogo Dalot and Luke Shaw after the win over Brentford.
United went agonisingly close on 15 minutes when Bruno Fernandes' corner found Antony on the edge of the box and the Brazilian unleashed a low strike that crashed against the upright. The away side's resistance was finally broken eight minutes before the halftime break when Scott McTominay latched onto Jadon Sancho's through-ball and fired past Pickford with a first-time finish.
The Red Devils went close to getting a second goal on 67 minutes when a swift counter attack ended with Marcel Sabitzer picking out Fernandes in the box, but the Portuguese's header was kept out by Pickford.
