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

Victor Lindelof was left out of the squad for Tuesday’s Champions League contest due to a knock that he picked up during Monday’s training session, but he could be available on Saturday.

Raphael Varane had to be replaced in the first half of the clash with Atalanta after picking up a hamstring problem, and the France international is now a major doubt for the Manchester derby.

Paul Pogba will again be suspended this weekend due to the red card that he picked up against Liverpool on October 24, and he will not return until at least November 23 against Villarreal.
