Man Utd XI vs Sheffield Utd: Confirmed team news, predicted line-ups and injury list for Sunday's match

Scott McTominay is the major doubt for Manchester United ahead of their clash with Sheffield United on Sunday.

The midfielder suffered an ankle injury just before the international break, which ruled him out of Scotland’s victories over Cyprus and Kazakhstan.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær was hopeful that two weeks of rest and treatment would see him make an immediate return - but he was unable take part in first team training on Wednesday.

There was better news elsewhere for United with for Axel Tuanzebe, Luke Shaw and Nemanja Matic all returning to training after injury lay-offs.

Eric Bailly has also stepped up his recovery from knee ligament damage, while Ashley Young is available again following suspension.

Solskjær is hoping to continue United’s recent revival, which saw them win five out of six games before the break.
