Manchester United will likely be without two of their star players ahead of their must-win Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.
The Red Devils are scheduled to host Bayern in the final round of Group A fixtures on Tuesday night at Old Trafford.
The tie comes at a time when United are enduring a mixed run of form and results, having suffered a 3-0 demolition in their last outing against Bournemouth in the Premier League.
According to Goal, Erik ten Hag's charges need maximum points against Bayern to stand any chance of qualifying for the next round of the Champions League.
A draw or defeat will see the Premier League giants eliminated from the competition after a frustrating campaign that has seen them win only one of the five games they have played.
Antony, Rashford miss training
In what would pass as a major blow to United, two of their stars, Rashford and Martial, will likely miss the Bayern cracker.
Metro UK reports that the duo was nowhere to be seen during the club's final training session ahead of the showdown.
Martial was part of the United starting XI that lost to Bournemouth before he was replaced in the second half by Rasmus Hojlund.
It is believed that the duo is suffering from an illness that could see them sidelined for the Tuesday night cracker.
Alejandro Garnacho and Antony are expected to start in the absence of the pair, with Hojlund leading the attack.
