Marcus Rashford is set to return to the Manchester United side for Saturday's Premier League clash with Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
The 25-year-old was not involved against Wolverhampton Wanderers last weekend due to a minor leg injury, but he has been back in training for the Red Devils this week.
As a result, the forward is set to come back into the side this weekend, with Man United looking to strengthen their grip on a top-four spot in the Premier League table.
Rashford has been in excellent form for the Red Devils this season, featuring on 53 occasions in all competitions, scoring 29 goals and registering 11 assists in the process.

Rashford has faced Bournemouth on nine occasions during his professional career and boasts a strong record against them, winning seven times, drawing once and losing once.
The Englishman has managed five goals against the Cherries, meanwhile, in addition to one assist, with all nine of the previous meetings coming in the top flight of English football.
Rashford actually scored in his first-ever game against Bournemouth on the final weekend of the 2015-16 season, registering in a 3-1 success for Man United at Old Trafford.

The forward did not register in his next three games versus the Cherries but then netted home and away against them during the 2018-19 campaign, while he also provided an assist in the 4-1 success for the Red Devils at Old Trafford.
Rashford has scored in his last two games against Bournemouth, meanwhile, including earlier this season, when Erik ten Hag's side recorded a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.
The attacker's only away goal against the Cherries came during the 2018-19 campaign, while he played the full 90 minutes of a 1-0 loss for Man United at the Vitality Stadium back in 2019.
Five goals and one assist in nine games against Bournemouth represents a strong return for Rashford, and his return is timely for a Man United side that are bidding to secure Champions League football for next term.
