Rasmus Hojlund back for Manchester United's clash with Liverpool, Marcus Rashford fit to face Everton, says Erik ten Hag

Manchester United will have Marcus Rashford and Jonny Evans available against Everton tomorrow live on TNT Sports, Erik ten Hag has confirmed, with three first-team players set for a return against Liverpool next weekend.

Rashford lashed home a screamer in last weekend's Premier League derby against Manchester City, though United went on to lose 3-1.

The England international - who has just six goals in 33 appearances across all competitions this season - was substituted through injury with 15 minutes remaining.

Evans was also forced off at Etihad Stadium, with the centre-back having made the latest of his 11 starts in the Premier League this term, as he continues to surprise in his second spell with The Red Devils.

In his pre-game press conference ahead of Saturday's hosting of relegation-battling Everton, Ten Hag said: "That's the good news, [Rashford and Evans] recovered after the derby, so they are available.

"The rest is the same squad apart from Omari Forson. He dropped out, he has an injury."

United have a host of other players in the treatment room, including Rasmus Hojlund, Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Mason Mount, Anthony Martial, Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez.

In a major boost for Ten Hag ahead of next Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final clash with fierce rivals Liverpool however, the first three of those are set to be in the matchday squad.

The Dutch coach continued: "For next week, some players are planning to return, hopefully when the process will continue like it is now, Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka I expect them to be available for our game against Liverpool. Hojlund as well.

"Mason Mount I think is in a good spell now and he will return shortly, I think after the international break."

Mount has been sidelined since November with a calf problem, with the England international having played just eight times in the league for United following a summer switch from Chelsea. He failed to register a goal or assist in those eight games.

A man they've certainly missed in back-to-back losses against City and Fulham, though, is Hojlund. The striker was in fantastic form before a muscle issue cropped up.

He became the first Dane to ever win the Premier League Player of the Month award thanks to his February displays, which also saw him stretch his scoring streak to six games, becoming the youngest player in United history to achieve that particular feat.

Hojlund racked up a total of seven goals and two assists across those matches, which directly led to eight points, propelling the Red Devils into the race for European qualification.

The 21-year-old will now be tasked with downing a resilient Liverpool team to secure a place in the FA Cup's final four and a trip to Wembley.

United have won just one of their last six games against the Premier League table-topping Reds.
