Manchester United receive a triple injury boost ahead of Tuesday's Champions League home meeting with Copenhagen.

Manchester United have received a triple injury boost ahead of Tuesday's Champions League home clash with Copenhagen.

After claiming consecutive 2-1 victories over Brentford and Sheffield United, the Red Devils are looking to claim a third straight win in midweek.

They are certainly in need of all three points after losing their opening two Champions League games against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray.

Man United have had to contend with a number of injuries in recent weeks, but there were some positive news on Monday after Sergio Reguilon, Casemiro and Tyrell Malacia all took part in some form of training.

Tottenham Hotspur loanee Reguilon has been restricted to just three competitive appearances since joining the club in the summer.

However, Man United boss Erik ten Hag has revealed that the Spaniard could feature in the matchday squad for Tuesday's contest.

Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Ten Hag told reporters: "Sergio got ill for Saturday so he was fit. He trained all week last week and yesterday [Sunday] he was back in part training.

"He will train [on Monday] and then we have to assess if he is ready and game fit or if he can be involved in the squad. We have to wait for that."

After missing the win over Sheffield United with a knock, Casemiro took part in Monday's session at Man United's Carrington training base

The Brazilian is ruled out of the midweek encounter through suspension, but he should be available for Sunday's Manchester derby.

Malacia, meanwhile, featured in an individual training session, as he continues to recover from an injury that he sustained prior to the season.

Despite receiving some positive news, Ten Hag is still without Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo.

Experienced defender Jonny Evans is also a minor doubt after he was forced off in the closing stages of Saturday's narrow win over Sheffield United.

The Northern Ireland international was replaced by Raphael Varane, who returned to the matchday squad following his recovery from an injury issue.
