Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Concussion

Shaw needed to be withdrawn through concussion during the defeat against Manchester City, an injury which led to the left-back missing out on England's recent double-header. He will continue to be assessed ahead of this game.

Scott McTominay

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Illness
Possible return date: November 20 (vs. Watford)

McTominay missed out on Scotland's win over Denmark on Monday night due to illness. However, the midfielder has since revealed on social media that he had "recovered well", suggesting that he should be available on Saturday.

Edinson Cavani

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Tendon

Cavani has missed out on Uruguay's recent fixtures, the forward citing a tendon injury as the reason. With United well stocked for options in the final third, Solskjaer is unlikely to take any risks on the veteran.
