Alexis Sanchez could make his first Manchester United appearance since November after being named among the substitutes for Wednesday's Premier League trip to Newcastle United.
Sanchez has been sidelined by a hamstring injury since featuring as a second-half substitute in the 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace at Old Trafford.

Fabian Schar comes into the Newcastle backline in place of Federico Fernandez, who suffered a hip injury during the 1-1 draw at Watford.
As a result, French centre-back Florian Lejeune is back on the bench for Rafael Benitez's men for the first time since suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury during pre-season.
