It's been a good week for Erik ten Hag and his squad, with Southampton and Barnsley convincingly dispatched, 3-0 and 7-0 respectively.
There has been further welcome news at Carrington, following the return of Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount to training after injury.
Hojlund is yet to feature in a competitive match this season, while Mount has been on the sidelines since the Brighton & Hove Albion game four weeks ago, but the pair will be assessed ahead of the weekend and could potentially be involved.
"It's very good news,” Erik said in his pre-match press conference.
