Manchester United will be eyeing a return to winning ways when they face Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Reds, who are winless in their last three meetings with Spurs, registered a second successive stalemate on Wednesday night, drawing 1-1 with FC Twente in their Europa League opener. Sam Lammers' second-half effort cancelled out Christian Eriksen's opener to secure the Dutch outfit a share of the spoils.
United will be determined to get back on track this weekend and record a third Premier League win of the campaign. Both themselves and Spurs have taken seven points from their opening five matches.
One of the few positives United took from the draw with Twente was the fact they navigated the game without encountering any fresh injury concerns. Manager Erik ten Hag, speaking on Thursday afternoon, did not report any fresh issues ahead of this weekend.
With that said, here is all the very latest on the injury front ahead of Sunday's tussle with Ange Postecoglou's side in M16...
Leny Yoro
Injury: Fractured metatarsal
Yoro, who joined United from Lille during the summer transfer window, fractured his metatarsal in the opening game of the club's pre-season tour of the United States. He required surgery and it was forecasted he could be out for up to three months.
However, as reported by the Manchester Evening News earlier this month, he is understood to be already walking without crutches, meaning his recovery is heading in the right direction.
Possible return date: November.
Victor Lindelof
Injury: Toe
Lindelof, who is out of contract at the end of this season, has not featured for United since he was taken off at half-time in their final pre-season friendly against Liverpool in the United States. Speaking ahead of the defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion last month, Ten Hag said he was hopeful the Swede could "return quickly".
However, the centre-back has not made it into a single matchday squad so far this season. He was involved in Tuesday's opening training session at Carrington ahead of the draw with Twente, meaning he could be available this weekend.
Possible return date: September 29 (Tottenham Hotspur H).
Luke Shaw
Injury: Calf
It was announced three days before United's Premier League opener against Fulham that Shaw would miss the start of the season with a calf injury. United, at the time, said he would be working towards the ambition of returning after the September international break.
However, the England international fell short of hitting that target. Ten Hag is now hopeful he will return before the October international break, if not just after.
"I think it's probably, but I can't say it's 100 per cent sure," Ten Hag said on Tuesday morning when asked if Shaw would be back next month. "The plan is just be back before but, as I say I can't say this for 100 per cent for sure it can be short after the break."
Possible return date: Mid-October.
Tyrell Malacia
Injury: Knee
Malacia has not featured for United since the final day of the 2022/23 Premier League season because of a knee injury. He has been working hard on his rehabilitation programme and Ten Hag said he could be back in contention within the next couple of months at the start of August.
Ten Hag explained: "He is not that far [off], but he is now in a progress situation. At a relatively short notice, he can again return into team training and then into team performance in games. I think it would be possible [to be available again] in two months."
Malacia has been back on the grass at Carrington and participated in the warm ups at Carrington on Tuesday.
