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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Liverpool.

Manchester United will seek to end a three-game winless run in the Premier League when they welcome old foes Liverpool to Old Trafford for Sunday's battle.

The Red Devils have taken just one point from the last nine on offer in the top flight and fell to a dampening 4-2 defeat to Leicester City during their most recent domestic contest.

However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side enter this game on the back of a thrilling 3-2 Champions League comeback success over Atalanta BC, as none other than Cristiano Ronaldo rose highest to complete the turnaround.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest.

Possible return date: October 24 (vs. Liverpool)

Amad Diallo has returned to training after recovering from a thigh issue but did not make the squad to face Atalanta. However, the attacker could yet make himself available for the visit of the Reds.


Marcus Rashford

A knock prevented out-of-favour attacker Anthony Martial from featuring against Atalanta - with the Frenchman returning from international duty with the problem - and it remains to be seen if he will be passed fit this weekend.
