What to know
- Centre-back Raphael Varane is set to return from his month-long lay-off, with the former France international having been missing since he suffered a foot injury during the first half of April's 2-2 draw with Sevilla. There are doubts, however, around the involvement of top scorer Marcus Rashford. "He has a problem, an injury on his leg, so he is a big question mark for tomorrow," said manager Erik ten Hag, "But we are happy Rapha Varane is back".
- While the loss of 29-goal striker Rashford would undoubtedly be a blow before such an important fixture, Alejandro Garnacho is once again an option in attack. The 18-year-old featured as an unused substitute in the matchday squad at West Ham and has benefited from working at Carrington.
- Wolves have no new absentees for their trip to Manchester, with the Black Country side having had to work without the absent Sasa Kalajdzic, Boubacar Traore and Chiquinho for some time now.
