Injured United trio set to return vs. Arsenal

Manchester United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will have plenty of options for this weekend's clash with Arsenal, as a trio of players are set to return from injury.

Solskjaer confirmed that Anthony Martial will be available for Sunday's encounter after missing five matches with a hamstring problem. Midfielders Ander Herrera and Nemanja Matic could also return to action after overcoming their respective injuries.

"They just need to have another couple of days training with the team. They've done well in their recovery work," Solskjaer said Friday.

Defender Eric Bailly is also expected to be in contention to play Sunday.

Meanwhile, Paul Pogba will be available after missing Wednesday's dramatic Champions League victory over Paris Saint-Germain due to suspension.

"Paul was over there training with us and in the dressing room and the meetings, so he wanted to be a part of that game," Solskjaer said. "It's great that he had a couple of days off after Southampton, so it was the least he could do."

United have a one-point edge on Arsenal heading into Sunday's contest at the Emirates Stadium in north London. They drew 2-2 during their first Premier League encounter at Old Trafford in December.
