Manchester United Handed Champions League Boost With PSG's Edinson Cavani Set to Miss Second Leg

Manchester United have been handed a boost ahead of Wednesday's Champions League second-leg clash with PSG as Edinson Cavani looks unlikely to start due to injury.

United, who are suffering from an injury crisis of their own, will need all the help they can get as they attempt to recover from the 0-2 defeat to PSG at Old Trafford in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.

The Uruguayan striker, who injured his hip against Bordeaux on 9 February, was due back in PSG training on Monday but is still not expected to start for the French champions as he looks to regain full fitness according to TF1, as mentioned by CaughtOffside.
