An element of intrigue promises to surround Erik ten Hag's starting line-up when Manchester United resume their Premier League campaign against Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon.
United, who will resume their campaign chasing a third successive Premier League win, are set to be without a series of big-name stars for the trip to Merseyside. Christian Eriksen, who was scheduled to be away with the Denmark squad over this current international break, faces up to a month out with a knee injury.
He has joined the likes of Lisandro Martinez and Casemiro as definite absentees for the clash with Sean Dyche's side. The aforementioned duo, who both joined United in the summer of 2022, could be sidelined until the other side of Christmas.

Ten Hag is also facing an anxious wait on a series of other members of his squad, meaning it is hard to predict just how his starting line-up at Goodison Park could look. With that said, MEN Sport has had a look at the latest on the United injury front with a detailed round-up.
The Cameroonian Football Federation announced on Sunday that Onana will play no part in Cameroon's World Cup qualifier against Libya on Tuesday because of an unspecified injury. He was forced off in the latter stages of Friday's 3-0 win over Mauritius.
This concern means United may be forced into handing fellow summer signing Altay Bayindir his debut at Goodison Park, though reports elsewhere have played down the severity of Onana's concern. Ten Hag will almost certainly provide clarity later this week.
Possible return date: November
