Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. West Ham United

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with West Ham United on Saturday.

Manchester United will endeavour to march to a second consecutive win in the Premier League when top-four rivals West Ham United pay a visit to Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon.

Ralf Rangnick witnessed his side turn up the heat in a 3-1 success over Brentford in midweek, with Anthony Elanga, Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford on the scoresheet.

The Red Devils enter the weekend still seventh in the rankings, but their visitors are only two points clear having played one game more than their counterparts.

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