Marcus Rashford, Scott McTominay, Lisandro Martinez - Man United injury news and return dates

Manchester United will be hoping to welcome back certain members of their first-team squad when taking on Crystal Palace on Monday evening.

Erik ten Hag's side are continuing to push for a top-five finish in the division and could yet catch Tottenham Hotspur before the end of the season, provided the team gets back to winning ways.

United were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw with Burnley last time out in the league, a game in which Scott McTominay sustained an unfortunate knee injury.

The Scottish midfielder has now joined a number of his other team-mates on the treatment table as Ten Hag's problems continue to stack up.
