Edinson Cavani, Scott McTominay ruled out for Manchester United against Watford

Cavani, McTominay ruled out for Man United against Watford

Manchester United will again be without the services of Edinson Cavani and Scott McTominay for Saturday's Premier League clash with Watford at Old Trafford.

Cavani has recently been unavailable for selection due to a groin problem, and the issue will also rule him out of the contest with the Hornets this weekend.

McTominay, meanwhile, was a late withdrawal from the squad against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday evening through illness, and the Scotland international has not recovered in time.

"The situation is exactly the same," Man United interim head coach Ralf Rangnick told MUTV. "He [Cavani] hasn't been training with us so he won't be available for tomorrow's game and the same is true with Scotty.

"He is still ill, he hasn't been training with us, so hopefully he will start training with us again next week, but for tomorrow's game they will both be unavailable."

Man United, who are fourth in the table on 46 points, will be bidding to make it three straight Premier League wins when they welcome Roy Hodgson's side to Old Trafford.
