Manchester United
Man United are set to be without Kobbie Mainoo (hamstring), Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw (both calf), Tyrell Malacia (knee), Antony (ankle) and Leny Yoro (foot), the latter of whom is closing in on a return, though.
Mason Mount (knock) has returned to training this week after recovering from injury, but Thursday's match will likely come too soon for the midfielder, while Christian Eriksen will be assessed ahead of kickoff having missed the last two games with an unspecified issue.
Bruno Fernandes was suspended for Man United's last Europa League game against Fenerbahce, but he is available to return and should start in behind either Rasmus Hojlund or Joshua Zirkzee up front, while the likes of Amad Diallo, Jonny Evans, Victor Lindelof and Harry Amass will all be hoping to force their way into the first XI.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
Onana; Dalot, De Ligt, Martinez, Mazraoui; Ugarte, Casemiro; Diallo, Fernandes, Rashford; Zirkzee
PAOK
As for PAOK, ex-Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren, former Aston Villa striker Mbwana Samatta and 38-year-old captain Vieirinha - who scored against Man United for Wolfsburg in 2015 - are all ineligible as they have not been selected in the Greek club's Europa League squad.
Former Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko will also miss out through injury, so Mady Camara and Stefan Schwab are set to battle for a start in the middle of the pitch alongside Magomed Ozdoyev.
Shola Shoretire spent 10 years at Man United before leaving on a free transfer in the summer to join PAOK, and he is in contention to play against his former club on Thursday. The 20-year-old winger has scored just once in eight appearances for the White-Blacks in all competitions this season.
PAOK possible starting lineup:
Kotarski; Jonny, Kedziora, Colley, Rahman; Camara, Ozdoyev; Despodov, Konstantelias, Taison; Chalov
Prediction: Manchester United 2-0 PAOK
