Raphael Varane - Returns to starting XI Varane (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Chelsea.

Impact Varane is back with the team after his slight injury scare Sunday, as expected, as he was viewed training this week and was thought to only be dealing with a minor issue. The defender should remain in a starting role moving forward, as he is easily one of their better options in the defense and has started in all but one match since Dec. 26.

Altay Bayindir - Remains sidelined Bayindir (strain) is out for Thursday's match against Chelsea.

Impact Bayindir is still not an option, missing yet another contest due to his strain. However, his absence is still only a minor issue, as he has yet to play a single minute this season, purely serving as the backup keeper.

Raphael Varane - Training ahead of Chelsea trip Varane (undisclosed) was back in training Wednesday ahead of Thursday's trip to Chelsea, according to manager Erik ten Hag.

Impact Varane appeared to pick up an issue last match and was subbed off at the break, but with Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof also going down in that contest, he'll be needed to start Thursday unless Jonny Evans gets the call ahead of him. Varane has started the last six league matches and 10 of the last 11 despite being benched earlier in the season.

Jonny Evans - Available against Chelsea Evans (undisclosed) returned to training and is available for Thursday's trip to Chelsea, according to manager Erik ten Hag.

That said, Evans is still expected to be on the bench with Raphael Varane also back in training. Evans has started 12 matches this season and two of the last three in league play.

Lisandro Martinez - Picks up calf injury Martinez (calf) will be out for a month with a calf injury, Manchester United announced.

Impact Martinez picked up the calf injury in training and is now set for a month on the sideline. It's obviously a disappointing turn for the defender. Martinez is a crucial piece of the backline and has missed multiple stretches through injury. With at least a month on the sideline coming up he could be done for the season.
