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

Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Manchester United ahead of their FA Cup showdown with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from their first defeat under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Monday night when they take on Chelsea in the fifth round of the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge.

After 10 wins and one draw from his opening 11 games at the helm, Solskjaer admitted that his side were given a "reality check" in their 2-0 home loss at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night.

With their Champions League hopes now hanging by a thread, the Red Devils must turn their attention to another piece of silverware, and a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup is up for grabs on Monday night.

The Red Devils overcame Arsenal in the last round and face another difficult test this time around, although with Liverpool next up Solskjaer could be tempted to rotate his squad.

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