Two players are likely to return to the team
Manchester United continues to have injury problems. A strong draw with Liverpool occurred amid multiple player absences, especially in the defence.
At Anfield, the Red Devils were without nine first-team players, with Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof being the two most noteworthy absences from the defence.
After recovering from a medical condition, Marcus Rashford was allowed to return to the bench, but Anthony Martial stayed out of the game and we still have to wait for Mason Mount, Christian Eriksen, and Casemiro to return.
