Man Utd vs Real Betis team news
Former Lille defender Leny Yoro went off in United’s reverse against Arsenal but the early indications are that it wasn’t a serious setback.
Rasmus Hojlund also went off but his muscle problem may not be enough to prevent him forming part of the squad in San Diego.

Victor Lindelof is back in full training and while Kobbie Mainoo and new signing Joshua Zirkzee have been spotted in the USA, neither is expected to have a role here.
Manuel Pellegrini will continue to be without Ayoze Perez, German Pezzella and Johnny Cardoso due to their involvement in various international tournaments this summer resulting in extra leave of absence.
Last season’s star performer, Isco, suffered an ankle injury in May and isn’t likely to return until mid-August.

Mixed start for Red Devils
The 2-1 loss to Arsenal in Los Angeles came at a cost for Man Utd. Hojlund put them ahead early but the striker then went off injured, as did £52m new signing Yoro.
Both looked to have occurred in rather innocuous fashion but will have caused a headache for Erik ten Hag that he didn’t need.
The Red Devils lost to Rosenborg in an underwhelming pre-season opener before a win over Rangers at Murrayfield ahead of their trip to the US.
The Community Shield against Manchester City is looming large on the horizon as the season inches closer.
Betis started their pre-season with a 5-1 win over Austria Salzburg, with 21-year-old forward Marcos Fernandez Sanchez hitting a brace.
The La Liga side have already faced Premier League opposition in pre-season, going down 1-0 to Liverpool on Saturday as Dominik Szoboszlai got the only goal in Pittsburgh.
Experienced boss Manuel Pellegrini led his side to seventh in the Spanish top flight last season, once more securing European football via the Conference League qualifiers.
Man Utd are perhaps closer to full tilt than Betis at this stage in the summer and may be keen to continue dominance in this fixture.
The only competitive meetings between these teams came in the Europa League last-16 stage in the 2022-23 season as United won both legs for a 5-1 aggregate victory.
