Anthony Martial, Antony and Christian Eriksen - Manchester United injury update and return dates

Manchester United will be without six senior players for their Premier League clash with Leeds United at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.

The Reds host the Yorkshire outfit in the first of their back-to-back matches, with the Reds travelling to Elland Road for the reverse fixture on Sunday. Erik ten Hag will be without several first-team players for the match against the Whites, while Casemiro is also missing through suspension after being sent off in the win over Crystal Palace.

Christian Eriksen has been ruled out for at least three months with an ankle injury, which prompted the club to sign Marcel Sabitzer on loan from Bayern Munich until the end of the season. Meanwhile, Donny van de Beek (knee) will be missing for the rest of the campaign, while Scott McTominay will definitely miss the game against Leeds.
