Raphael Varane returns, now replaced by Lisandro Martinez in the infirmary. Injuries are starting to become more frequent for United in defence. Leaders have found the future defender of their joint.
Manchester United are facing a growing list of injuries, especially among defenders. This season, the club has made their worst start since 1989 in the Premier League, and injury problems have not saved their backline either.
