Manchester United continue their Europa League campaign in the Netherlands on Thursday, facing off against AZ Alkmaar. United hope to make it two wins on the trot in the competition after they won their opening match of the group, while AZ are hoping to pick up their first win after only managing a 2-2 draw against Partizan Belgrade last month.
United will be without a number of starters due to injury and illness. Aaron Wan-Bissaka is still recovering from tonsilitis, while Paul Pogba is still struggling with an ankle injury. Anthony Martial is yet to return from injury, and Phil Jones is sidelined as well. Even more than the result, the Reds will be hoping to avoid any further injuries to an already depleted squad.
