Manchester United will get their Premier League campaign underway at home against title contenders Arsenal on Sunday at Old Trafford. (4:30pm kick-off).
This week, as part of preparations for the match, the club confirmed that youngster Jack Fletcher trained with the first team. Fletcher, the son of former United midfielder and current Under-18s coach Darren, is one of the most highly rated prospects from the club's academy.
He was named on the bench seven times over the course of last season. Elsewhere, new signings Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Diego Leon, and Benjamin Sesko could all make their Premier League debuts for United.
With that said, Reds' head coach Ruben Amorim will be without some key players for the fixture.
Here, MEN Sport has taken a look at the latest injury news...
Lisandro Martinez
The Argentinian is still recovering from a cruciate knee ligament he sustained back in February.
Injury: Knee.
What Amorim has said: "He's going to be out for a while. We don't know the extent of the injury, but it's an injury that is going to take time."
Possible return date: Unknown.
Noussair Mazraoui
The Moroccan missed United’s US tour due to an injury. He did start the pre-season opener against Leeds in Stockholm last month but was substituted at half-time.

Joshua Zirkzee
Injury: The striker was absent from United's pre-season tour of the USA due to an unspecified injury.
Possible return date: August 17 (Arsenal H).
Andre Onana
The goalkeeper's hamstring injury has kept Onana from featuring in the first week of pre-season training at Carrington.
Although he wasn’t considered fit enough to participate in the tour, he traveled to the US nearly two weeks ago to continue his rehabilitation. While there, he trained regularly, with sources noting he had been 'throwing himself around' in training, albeit in non-contact drills.
Injury: Hamstring.
Possible return date: August 17 (Arsenal H).
