Manchester United travel to the Netherlands on Thursday for a meeting with AZ Alkmaar in Group L of the Europa League.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men will be desperate to break a terrible run away from home which has seen them fail to win any of their last seven games on the road.

Anthony Martial

Status: Out
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: October 6 (vs. Newcastle United)

Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: October 3 (vs. AZ Alkmaar)

Possible return date: October 3 (vs. AZ Alkmaar)
