Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Watford

Man Utd injury, suspension list vs. Watford

Manchester United return to Premier League action after the international break with a home match against Watford in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Red Devils lost two games in a row for the first time under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer immediately before the break, seeing them drop out of the top four and suffer elimination from the FA Cup.

Victory this weekend would lift them back into the Champions League places with Arsenal not in action until Monday night, but a third successive defeat would leave them with plenty of work to do over the final seven games of the season.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Solskjaer's side.


MANCHESTER UNITED'S INJURY LIST

Romelu Lukaku

Status: Slight doubt Type of injury: Foot Possible return date: March 30 (vs. Watford)

Romelu Lukaku was forced to withdraw from the Belgium squad during the international break having failed to recover from his foot injury and he remains a doubt for this game.


Alexis Sanchez

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: April 21 (vs. Everton)

It is likely to be another five games at least before Alexis Sanchez is ready to return from his latest injury, having suffered ligament damage against Southampton at the start of the month.


Anthony Martial

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: March 30 (vs. Watford)

Anthony Martial played the full 90 minutes of United's FA Cup defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers before the international break, but he did not feature for France having been forced to withdraw with a knee problem.

Matteo Darmian's situation remains unclear, having returned to training but still not come close to a return to the matchday squad. The Italian has not featured since a brief substitute appearance on January 19.


Luke Shaw

Status: Slight doubt Type of injury: Knock Possible return date: March 30 (vs. Watford)

Another withdrawal from Gareth Southgate's England squad, Shaw also faces a race against time to prove his fitness ahead of Saturday's match.

Eric Bailly suffered a nasty collision of heads on international duty with Ivory Coast, but he did return to his feet before being subbed as a precaution. The centre-back will go through the necessary tests before being ruled in or out of the match.
