Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Leicester City

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League showdown with top-four rivals Leicester City.

Manchester United head into the final day of the Premier League season knowing that they need a point against Leicester City to confirm a top-four finish.

The Red Devils played out an uninspiring 1-1 draw against West Ham United on Wednesday - Mason Greenwood's 10th league goal of the campaign cancelling out Michail Antonio's penalty.

Despite the disappointing nature of the result, which makes it one win in four games in all competitions, United's fate is in their own hands in terms of Champions League qualification.

Ahead of Sunday's clash with fifth-placed Leicester, who can move into the top four with victory at the King Power Stadium, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's latest injury and suspension news.
