WHAT HAPPENED? Marcel Sabitzer pulled up injured in the warm-up before Manchester United's Premier League game at Nottingham Forest and was replaced in the starting line-up by Christian Eriksen, who has only just returned from a long-term injury absence himself.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Sabitzer scored twice in United's 2-2 draw with Sevilla in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday. His injury comes after United lost Lisandro Martinez for the rest of the season, and they are also currently without key duo Marcus Rashford and Luke Shaw.
