Shaw, Malacia, Rashford - Manchester United injury latest and return dates ahead of Sevilla clash

Manchester United will be looking to secure a place in the semi-finals of the Europa League when they lock horns with Sevilla in the second-leg of their quarter-final showdown at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium on Thursday evening.

The Reds, who knocked Real Betis out of the competition in the last round, squandered a two-goal lead in last week's first-leg at Old Trafford, conceding two own-goals in the closing stages. They had found themselves 2-0 up by half-time, courtesy of a classy brace from Bayern Munich loanee Marcel Sabitzer.

Despite blowing a commanding lead, it was the losses of star centre-backs Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez to injury that overshadowed the result. The former is expected to be sidelined for the next few weeks while Martinez has undergone surgery on a fractured metatarsal that has ruled him out for the remainder of the season.

The duo were the latest additions to what was an already lengthy injury list, meaning United manager Erik ten Hag must be praying for a change in fortunes on that front. With that said, here is a close look at all the very latest injury news ahead of the clash with Sevilla:

After missing each of the last two games with a groin problem, Rashford is in contention to return against Sevilla, despite only completing one group training session. He has been included in the 21-man squad and could be deemed strong enough to start, offering the Reds an extra goal threat.

Speaking at Wednesday evening's press conference, Ten Hag explained: "He has had one session with the team, but he had some sessions before individually."

Possible return date: April 20 (vs Sevilla).
