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

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

Manchester United will be bidding to make it four wins in a row in all competitions when they head to Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The Red Devils recorded a 1-0 victory over West Ham United in the league last weekend before beating Real Sociedad by the same scoreline in the Europa League on Thursday.

However, Erik ten Hag's side did not do enough to top their Europa League group, meaning that the team will have to play a playoff next February to determine whether they will be present in the round of 16.

Man United are currently fifth in the Premier League table, one point behind fourth-placed Newcastle United, who have played a game more than the 20-time English champions.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with Aston Villa, who currently sit down in 16th position in the division.
