Manchester United have been handed a double injury boost ahead of the first leg of the Europa League semi-final against Athletic Bilbao tomorrow.

The Red Devils have been poor in the Premier League this campaign and they have picked up just 39 points after 34 games into the season.

However, they have fared better in Europe and have reached the last four. They face a tough challenge against Bilbao to make the final.

Ahead of the game, manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed a big boost with Amad Diallo and Matthijs de Ligt back in first-team training.

Diallo has returned after being on the sidelines for the last few months after ankle surgery. He could feature off the bench if required.

De Ligt has been absent for the last few weeks with a calf issue. The Dutchman could likewise come on as a substitute tomorrow.

United go into the first leg as slight underdogs, but have been handed a boost with Bilbao playmaker Oihan Sancet out injured.
