Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Brighton & Hove Albion

Sports Mole rounds up all of Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Manchester United will be aiming to get back to winning ways when they host Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Red Devils have had two weeks to reflect on their disappointing 3-1 loss to Leicester City in the FA Cup quarter-finals.

United are unbeaten in nine league matches, however, winning the last two of those without conceding, and are 14 points behind leaders Manchester City with a game in hand.

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

Possible return date: April 4 (vs. Brighton)

Marcus Rashford missed United's defeat to Leicester after injuring his ankle in the first half of the win against AC Milan three days prior. The 23-year-old joined up with England but has since returned to United without playing a game as he continues his recovery.
