Manchester United are in Premier League action against Arsenal on Sunday afternoon as they look to return to seal back-to-back wins in the league
Ruben Amorim could welcome four more players back for the Premier League clash with Arsenal on Sunday afternoon (4:30pm).
United have dealt with a number of injuries throughout the season which has had a major effect on their form. They bowed out of the FA Cup last week, losing to Fulham on penalties at Old Trafford, meaning the Europa League is their only hope of lifting silverware this season.
After progressing automatically to the knockout stage of the competition, United drew 1-1 to Real Sociedad in the first leg in Spain. They will look to reverse the result in the second leg tie at home next week.
But they will face Arsenal first in what will be another tough encounter. The Gunners were embroiled in the title race with Liverpool for the majority of the season before losing to West Ham and drawing to Nottingham Forest in their last two games. Liverpool are 16 points clear at the top after their win over Southampton on Saturday.
Ahead of the clash, Amorim issued an injury update of his squad. “I think it’s just Amad [and Lisandro Martinez],” the Reds head coach said. “Even Amad, we’ll see in the end of the last month, I don’t want to say anything to you but I have the hope to have Amad before, we’ll see.
“Kobbie [Mainoo] can return. The rest, my worry is we have to be careful. Manu [Ugarte] will return. I think Luke Shaw and Mason Mount can return also. We’ll see but they are definitely going to return, especially Mason Mount.”
