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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of Saturday's derby with Manchester City.

Manchester United will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League when they welcome rivals Manchester City to Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

The Red Devils recorded a morale-boosting 3-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the league last weekend, which eased the pressure on head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The 20-time English champions then picked up a point away to Atalanta BC in the Champions League on Tuesday night, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice in a 2-2 draw.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Man City, who suffered a home defeat to Crystal Palace in the league last weekend.
