Sabitzer was not involved in Saturday's 2-0 win at home to Wolves, a victory that reset United's top-four fight after consecutive defeats on the road. The 29-year-old came off the bench at West Ham the previous week and finished the game, with Reds boss Erik ten Hag unable to elaborate on his absence over the weekend.
