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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of their FA Cup clash with Middlesbrough on Friday.

Manchester United make their return to action following the mid-season break with the visit of Middlesbrough for the fourth round of the FA Cup on Friday night.

Ralf Rangnick's side waited until the dying embers to see off West Ham United in their last Premier League battle, with Marcus Rashford's injury-time winner settling the contest.

The Red Devils also had to rely on a 1-0 scoreline to beat Aston Villa in the third round of the FA Cup thanks to Scott McTominay's strike, but Rangnick will expect to welcome several players back for the fourth round.

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

Aaron Wan-Bissaka was struggling with an illness before the international break, but Rangnick hopes to have the right-back at his disposal for Friday's contest.

Victor Lindelof's house was broken into with his family present during Man United's win over Brentford last month - the Swedish centre-back did not feature against West Ham and has since come down with an illness, so he will miss out again.
