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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.

Manchester United will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford on Saturday.

Ralf Rangnick's side will enter the contest off the back of a 4-1 defeat to Manchester City last weekend, which has left them in fifth position in the table on 47 points, one point behind fourth-placed Arsenal, who have three games in hand.

The Red Devils are also only two points clear of seventh-placed Tottenham Hotspur, who have two games spare on the 20-time English champions.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Spurs, who thrashed Everton 5-0 on Monday night.
