Christian Eriksen and Scott McTominay are available for Manchester United in their Premier League rematch with Crystal Palace.
Eriksen and McTominay missed the League Cup win over Palace on Tuesday through illness but the duo have recovered.
United will be without defenders Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Luke Shaw and Sergio Reguilon. Martinez is set to be out for around two months with a recurrence of a foot injury while Reguilon is sidelined with an unspecified injury, having played against Burnley whilst unwell.

United manager Erik ten Hag is unhappy with the expansion of the football calendar, with the Champions League format to be changed for next season and to consist of eight group games - two more than the six games currently played.
Sixteen United players have either suffered an injury or illness since pre-season and after playing 62 games last term, Ten Hag is concerned by the "overload" on players.
"We have seen some players back on Tuesday and for tomorrow are back players out of the squad on Tuesday: Scott McTominay and Christian Eriksen. They are back," Ten Hag said.
"We already expanded the squad this season because we make the reason clear. We had a World Cup in the middle of the season, we had a longer season, we had to play a longer season as well, with FA Cup, then Nations League games, a shorter break.
"Every time, the schedule is expanding, the load on the players is too much, it's such a great overload. Many colleagues of mine have pointed to that and I have pointed to that as well.
"But it keeps going. We keep expanding the schedule. Anywhere, it won't stop.
