Manchester United receive double injury boost ahead of Manchester Derby

Manchester United have received a double injury boost ahead of their upcoming Premier League tie against Manchester City.

To get any kind of result against Premier League champions Manchester City, Erik ten Hag will be desperate to have a fully fit squad at his disposal.

Both Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford have been struggling with injuries of late and Ten Hag may have been worried that they will miss their next game against Manchester City.

Now, Ten Hag has confirmed that Martial and Rashford could be involved on Sunday, as reported by Samuel Luckhurst.

With Manchester United likely to have to play on the counterattack against Manchester City, having Martial and Rashford available could be crucial if they are to get a result.

There is no doubt that Pep Guardiola’s side will dominate possession, so using pace in transition will give them a chance to win. Manchester City are likely to commit many men forward, often leaving room behind to exploit, but without Rashford or Martial, United lack pace up front.
