Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Partizan

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday's Europa League clash with Partizan.

Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from Saturday's 1-0 loss at Bournemouth in the Premier League when they host Partizan in the Europa League on Thursday night.

The Red Devils continue to struggle in the Premier League, but they have made a positive start to their Europa League campaign, collecting seven points from three matches to top Group L.

Anthony Martial scored the only goal of the match as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side recorded a 1-0 win away to Partizan in the reverse match late last month.

The 20-time English champions will now be looking to book their spot in the knockout stages of the competition ahead of next weekend's Premier League game with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash.
