Manchester United transfer news LIVE Cristiano Ronaldo latest and Man Utd fixture updates

Manchester United will continue their preparations for Thursday's Europa League clash against Sheriff Tiraspol today after yesterday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace was postponed.

Football right across England was cancelled over the weekend following the death of Queen Elizabeth II on Thursday. As a mark of respect, both the Premier League and the EFL made the decision to postpone fixtures across the board.

It means that United were denied the opportunity to try and extend their winning run in the Premier League to five matches. Instead, however, it allowed manager Erik ten Hag to take stock of the season so far and continue putting plans in place for the clash with Sheriff later this week.

The Reds lost their Europa League opener last Thursday evening, going down 1-0 to Real Sociedad at Old Trafford, meaning they are under pressure to get their first point[s] on the board as soon as possible. Ten Hag's side are the favourites to win Group E and progress to the knockout stages of the competition with minimal fuss.

After facing Sheriff, United will hope to resume their Premier League campaign against arch rivals Leeds United on Sunday afternoon. The Queen's funeral will take place next Monday, meaning this coming weekend's fixtures should go ahead, but subject to the correct policing resources being available.
