Manchester United's Carrington training base geared up for Sunday's huge Premier League clash with Arsenal.
Manchester United will be aiming to get back to winning ways when they welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon. It's a crucial game for both clubs.
United crashed to a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Monday evening, marking a record-breaking 13th loss in the Premier League this season. Goals from Michael Olise (2), Jean-Philippe Mateta and Tyrick Mitchell put the Reds to the sword.
The challenge for United is to now bounce back at the first available opportunity in what is their penultimate home game of the season. However, they must get the better of an Arsenal side that is still striving for its first Premier League title in two decades.
Fortunately, United's hopes of getting a result have been boosted by the fact Lisandro Martinez and Marcus Rashford have returned to first-team training after respective absences through injury. Martinez has been missing since the end of March, whereas Rashford has missed the last three games.
Manager Erik ten Hag will address the media on Friday lunchtime, meaning he will almost certainly provide more clarity on their respective conditions ahead of Sunday's visit of the Gunners. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will be watching on keenly, with any returning players likely to improve United's performance and potentially put a serious dent in the visitors' title hopes.
Below, MEN Sport has picked out five things we spotted from Thursday's training session at Carrington.
