Manchester United have three injury concerns ahead of their trip to Crystal Palace on Sunday: Matheus Cunha, Harry Maguire and Benjamin Sesko.
Don’t expect any of them to be in the matchday squad this weekend, but Maguire (thigh injury) and Cunha (a head face injury sustained during a training session) may stand a chance of being passed fit.

Benjamin Sesko has been out since before the most recent internatiomal break, with a knee injury.
Sesko will likely be sidelined until mid-December. If he is indeed ruled out this weekend, then Maguire could return next weekend. As for Cunha, here is what manager Ruben Amorim said a couple days ago:
“It was a knock in training, so I don’t know how long he’s going to stay out. I think it’s nothing serious, but we cannot risk players.”
So Cunha could be back around the same time as Maguire.
