Eric Bailly out, Phil Jones back for Manchester City match

Eric Bailly still absent for Man City match

Manchester United will be without Eric Bailly for their Premier League meeting against Manchester City, but fellow centre-back Phil Jones has been given the all-clear to feature.

Bailly has not played in any of the Red Devils' last six matches since the international break, while Jones's most recent appearance also came in the 1-0 defeat to Chelsea over a month ago.

United boss Jose Mourinho expects to have Jones back available for the visit of league leaders Man City, however, and Nemanja Matic and Zlatan Ibrahimovic will also be included in the squad.

Midfielder Marouane Fellaini remains a fitness doubt due to a knee problem, meanwhile, with an assessment pencilled in for Saturday afternoon.

The visitors have been given a major boost ahead of the match, with news that playmaker David Silva is fit to play a full part following an injury scare.
