The Belgian striker has been on a poor run of form and hasn't scored in his last eight games.
On Friday afternoon, Mourinho admitted that Lukaku has been struggling for confidence, but he expects him to return to form soon enough.
"I think one of the best scorers in football had funny words about it. It was when Cristiano Ronaldo was speaking about the ketchup bottle and when you [shake it]. The goals are coming and coming and coming. "I believe with Lukaku that this will happen, but the reality is that in this moment it's not happening. "There's been lots of matches in which he's not scored a goal, and not just scoring but also the performances, the happiness in the performances, I think is the problem. But he's a good player, a good boy, and I think the best way to do it is to just keep working and the moment will arrive."
Manchester Evening News were keen to stress that, of course, the final lineup could change before the match at 4 pm on Sunday.
However, the United team news was leaked ahead of last Saturday's draw with Chelsea and it proved correct.
According to a report, Mourinho has launched an investigation into why these leaks keep occurring. The United manager is said to be "fuming."
If this leak is accurate, Lukaku will miss the match against Everton, his former team.
Marco Silva's side were two places and one point above United ahead of the game, sitting in eighth place with 15 points from nine Premier League matches.
