Man Utd XI vs AZ Alkmaar: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup and injuries for Europa League clash

Marcos Rojo and Nemanja Matic are in contention to return for Manchester United’s Europa League clash with AZ Alkmaar.

The pair are both back in training following injuries and are likely to be part of a much-changed line-up from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Axel Tuanzebe could also be involved.

United have already secured qualification for the knockout stages, so Solskjaer has the luxury of being able to focus on Sunday’s game against Everton.

Mason Greenwood, Brandon Williams and James Garner are all in contention to start.

United need a point to ensure they finish top of Group L and avoid the best of the Champions League sides who will drop into the competition in the next round.

Solskjaer said: “Of course I'm bothered (about winning the group). I’m not going to send these boys out and not care if they win or lose.

“Every time you play for Man United you have a chance to prove to me and the supporters that you deserve to be part of this team for a long time.”
