Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will make at least three changes to the team which beat Southampton against CSKA Moscow on Wednesday.
Mourinho confirmed at his pre-match press conference Marouane Fellaini is out with an injury he suffered during the first-half Southampton and Ander Herrera is expected to come in for the Belgian.
The M.E.N. revealed on Monday defenders Antonio Valencia and Phil Jones were not with the travelling squad at Manchester Airport and the duo did not train with their teammates at the VEB Stadium on Tuesday afternoon.
Valencia posted a photo from United's Carrington training complex on Tuesday morning on one of his social media accounts and it appears Jones has also been rested for the CSKA tie. Mourinho admitted in August Jones had an ankle problem United were having to manage.
"For years and years and years he was injury-prone and he has a problem now, he has a problem now," Mourinho said. "He's complaining about an ankle problem.
"So he's the kind of player where we need to have him always in our hands with a lot of care from the medical department, from the fitness coach, from my assistants, in the gym, always working on prevention and recovery, if we manage to have him safe, protected from injuries, I think potentially he is everything I like in a central defender."
Jones was suspended for the Super Cup tie with Real Madrid and Champions League visit of Basel before he sat out the Carabao Cup stroll against Burton but has started all six league games.
With the exception of the Super Cup, Valencia has also been restricted to just Premier League outings this season. The 32-year-old was rested for the wins against Basel and Burton and Mourinho seems to have continued protecting Valencia at the start of this season.
United's medical staff was concerned by Valencia's fatigue towards the end of last term and Mourinho limited Valencia to four Premier League appearances in the last two months as he prioritised the Europa League.
Matteo Darmian, who started at right-back against Burton last week, could replace Valencia in Russia but Mourinho could also opt for Ashley Young, Victor Lindelof or Axel Tuanzebe, who have all played at right-back.
Chris Smalling is expected to replace Jones alongside Bailly after he came on at St Mary's on Saturday. Lindelof did not travel to the south coast but is guaranteed to at least make the bench in Russia.
"I won't have Fellaini, I won't have Pogba, we won't have Carrick, so all three midfield players that we lose for this match," Mourinho said. "So there are not many solutions, but we try not to focus on individual battles or in specific areas on the pitch.
"We try to focus on the globality and we are going to have a team with quality, with balance, to try to win the match which is our objective.
"I play against CSKA with Real Madrid, with Inter, with Chelsea and now with Manchester United, so it's something normal in my Champions League career.
"To be honest, I always like to be back because it is a beautiful city. Every time I come it's better and better and better so I have to say that it's a pleasure.
"Opponents-wise, I think it's the best CSKA that I'm going to play against. I think it's the best team that I face with CSKA as an opponent."
