The Red Devils have now won three games in succession at Old Trafford and after a win against Sunderland before the international break, confidence will be higher than ever.

However, Bruno Fernandes, Matheus Cunha, Amad and Casemiro have all missed training this week as manager Ruben Amorim granted additional time off for the players who had been travelling for international duty or trained throughout the break. 

Cunha and Casemiro featured for Brazil who had games in Asia, Portugal played closer to home as they drew against Hungary. Meanwhile, Amad impressed with the Ivory Coast, who finished Group F in the African qualifiers without conceding a goal in the 10 games. 

United are hoping to secure consecutive Premier League victories for the first time this season. Now, with such important players having extra rest, they could provide a huge boost for Amorim in what will be one of the biggests tests of the season.
