Manager Ralf Rangnick hinted Cristiano Ronaldo could return for the clash after missing United’s last two games with a hip injury.
He also revealed he expects Marcus Rashford to feature.
Rangick said in his press conference on Tuesday: “Cristiano and Marcus were training yesterday, so I suppose they will also be training today.
“But in the press conference before the Villa game I was also convinced Cristiano would be available and he wasn’t, the same with Marcus.
“So we have to wait for the training session today. Right now, I think they both could be available.”
