Three Manchester United players are set to return for the FA Cup quarter-final match against Liverpool next week, with others ready to face Everton this weekend.

Marcus Rashford and Jonny Evans are both ready for the game on Saturday at Old Trafford after suffering problems during the 3-1 deby loss to Manchester City last weekend, whilst others will be back in time to take on Liverpool.
