and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Manchester United could be without just three senior players due to injury when they face FCSB in the Europa League tonight. Ruben Amorim's side head to Romania in search of a win as they look to book their place in the next round of the revamped competition and avoid a dreaded play-off round.
United were handed a fitness boost ahead of the match as Luke Shaw returned to first-team training, though the left-back will not be involved in the match as he eased back into action. Marcus Rashford also trained though he did not travel to Romania with the rest of the first-team squad.
