MANCHESTER UNITED face several injury concerns heading into their huge Premier League clash with fierce rivals Liverpool on Sunday.
SunSport exclusively revealed on Friday that Bruno Fernandes is feeling the effects of the 3-2 win over Atalanta and is a doubt for the weekend.
But he is not the only one of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's squad hampered by the grueling Champions League tie, which saw the Red Devils come from 2-0 down to collect all three points thanks to a late Cristiano Ronaldo header.
Both Fred and Marcus Rashford – who made his first start of the season on Wednesday – are in a race to be fit for the crunch game against Jurgen Klopp's men, with the England international said to have suffered a dead leg.
Anthony Martial is expected to be available for selection, but centre-back Raphael Varane remains on the sidelines.
Another selection headache for Solskjaer is whether he opts to select Paul Pogba in central midfield.
The Frenchman started in the 4-2 defeat to Leicester but was then dropped in the Champions League.
However, he did come on with 25 minutes remaining and helped United turn the tide in their favour.
