The latest Man Utd injury news and potential return dates ahead of the weekend clash with Crystal Palace.

Manchester United were handed a double injury scare as they defeated Everton in the Premier League on Monday night.

Michael Carrick extended his unbeaten start to life as United head coach to six matches, while the Reds are now unbeaten across their last 10 Premier League games. United were forced to make one change to their starting line up when Leny Yoro was brought into the backline, while Benjamin Sesko started on the bench before his latest scoring heroics.

United sit fourth in the Premier League table, three points ahead of both Chelsea and Liverpool in the race for Champions League qualification.
