Team news, key stats and prediction ahead of Manchester United vs Norwich in the Premier League.
Harry Maguire could make a quicker-than-expected return from a hip injury for Manchester United's Premier League clash with Norwich on Saturday.
Jesse Lingard misses out through illness but Anthony Martial, who was a late substitute in the Carabao Cup loss to Manchester City in midweek, could return to the starting line-up.
Paul Pogba (ankle) and Scott McTominay (knee) are not expected to be in contention until next month. Defenders Eric Bailly and Timothy Fosu-Mensah were due to step up their returns from long-term knee injuries with appearances for the U23s on Friday.
Norwich's injury list shows no sign of abating and Daniel Farke will be without top goalscorer Teemu Pukki for the trip to Old Trafford. The Canaries also have long-term injury problems with Timm Klose, Ben Godfrey and Josip Drmic all ruled out.
Jamal Lewis had been struggling earlier in the week with tonsillitis and Grant Hanley with illness, although the pair are expected to be available for the United clash.

I have a feeling this may be the game I get at the weekend. Normally this would be the banker of the weekend. I feel Manchester United will win, but after seeing how poor they were against Arsenal, Wolves, and then the embarrassingly shocking performance against Manchester City, it will be a close-run clash.
Anthony Martial is back, Jesse Lingard got a game under his belt, and Marcus Rashford scored again. Just with the presence in attack, United will win, but this is not going to be as easy as what you might think.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer especially, although I credit him for the way he handles situations regarding media and what not, if he does not get the results he is out anyway, so he accepts the position he is in. They will get over the line but at the back United are poor also, which means Teemu Pukki or Todd Cantwell could score.
CHARLIE PREDICTS: 2-1 (8/1 with Sky Bet)
