Manchester United boss David Moyes has confirmed that Rafael and Jonny Evans will both miss Tuesday night's Champions League clash with Real Sociedad.
The Red Devils take on the Spaniards at the Anoeta Stadium in the fourth matchday of the 2013/14 campaign but will be without the defensive pairing who are battling ankle and back injuries respectively.
"We haven't had a lot of injuries - I think it's the best Manchester United have been in that respect for a while but we did pick up three on Saturday, which is very rare - especially by half-time," said Moyes.
"Two of them haven't travelled, Jonny Evans and Rafael, so they're not with us."
