Manchester United travel to the London Stadium to face West Ham in the Premier League this afternoon.
Erik ten Hag’s men are seeking consecutive league wins for the first time since the final day of last season.
United beat Brentford 2-1 at home last Saturday to end their winless run of five games.
After throwing away a 1-0 lead to draw with Fenerbahce on Thursday, the Red Devils will quickly look to get back to winning ways.
With a list of seven absentees, United’s injury crisis doubles the challenge they face in a hostile away ground.

Kobbie Mainoo is still unavailable after sustaining a hamstring injury earlier this month.
The midifeld star is expected to be out until November, but provided an encouraging update on his recovery progress last night.
Harry Maguire is in the same boat, as he will also not return until next month due to a muscle injury.
Antony sprained his ankle in the midweek and will miss Sunday’s affair – the severity of his injury is unknown as it is still being evaluated.
‘I haven’t seen it, it’s only what I have to tell you out of the second hand, so from the doctor and the physio, who told me what they saw. So, first, I have to see the video before I can give comment on this,’ Ten Hag said after the game.
Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Tyrell Malacia are all still unavailable.
Jonny Evans was spotted in training yesterday and Ten Hag is optimistic of his return.
Likewise, Bruno Fernandes will be back in the lineup after also missing the game against Fenerbahce due to a suspension.
‘We expect, of course, Bruno back and, hopefully, also Jonny Evans,’ the manager said.
For West Ham, they are set to miss just two players – Mohammed Kudus is suspended and Niclas Fullkrug is still out with a calf injury.
