Ozan Tufan will undergo a late fitness test to determine his availability for Saturday’s home clash against Manchester United.

The midfielder suffered a knee injury on international duty with Turkey.

Juraj Kucka is unavailable following his red card in the 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.

However the Frenchman is now set for a longer spell on the side lines after sustaining a thigh injury on international duty.

Pogba's compatriot Raphael Varane is also expected to be absent due to a hamstring issue while doubts remain on a number of other players.

Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay were both forced to withdraw from England and Scotland duty respectively due to concussion concerns and illness.

Watford v Manchester United: What has been said?

Solskjaer said: "We've been through periods like this before. Our away form, we've just gone 30-odd games and lost one.

"Last season we turned it around and went on a run of 20-odd games and one defeat, that's the kind of run we need to get back.

"This week we've prioritised a few things we have to improve on. Form and performances haven't been good enough.

"We can do better, should do better and it's down to performances on the day, human beings, sometimes you hit the post and it goes out, sometimes it goes in, that can affect the mood, atmosphere.

"We've got to focus on getting the start right."
