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

Manchester United head into their Premier League showdown at Arsenal having established themselves as a major contender for a top-four spot at the end of the season.

Back-to-back wins over Newcastle United and Burnley have closed the gap on fourth-placed Chelsea, providing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team with plenty of confidence heading into 2020.

As well as looking to move a step closer to achieving their own target, United also have the opportunity to keep their opponents on New Year's Day out of the equation.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the fixture in North London.

Tuanzebe has been out of contention since picking up a hamstring problem against Colchester United in the EFL Cup on December 18. It is unlikely that the centre-back will play any part in this match.

United have no players suspended for this match.
