Seeking to avoid a third successive Premier League away defeat, Manchester United head to the City Ground to do battle with Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils enter the domestic contest on the back of a 2-2 draw with Sevilla in the first leg of their Europa League tie, where own goals from Tyrell Malacia and Harry Maguire wiped out a two-goal advantage late on.
Erik ten Hag's men cruised past Everton 2-0 in their most recent top-flight showdown, though, leaving them in control of their Champions League destiny in fourth place in the table.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Tricky Trees, who are entrenched in the relegation zone in 18th place.

With 86 minutes gone in Thursday's game with Sevilla, Lisandro Martinez dropped to the turf with nobody near him, and he had to be carried off the field by Argentina teammates Marcos Acuna and Gonzalo Montiel.
The centre-back was then loaded onto a stretcher, and it has now been confirmed that he will miss the rest of the season after fracturing a metatarsal in his foot.

Prior to Martinez's injury, Raphael Varane was withdrawn at half time against Sevilla - having gone down with a foot problem too - and the Frenchman will be out for a few weeks, but there is hope that he will play again before the season is over.

The injuries were piling up for Man United even before Thursday's affair commenced, as Scott McTominay was nowhere to be seen in the Europa League due to a knock, but his issue is not a serious one and should not prevent him from returning to the squad this weekend.
