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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday's Europa League showdown with Barcelona.

Manchester United will do battle with Barcelona at Camp Nou on Thursday as the Europa League knockout phase gets underway.

Despite winning five of their six matches in Group E, the Red Devils finished second on goal difference, with Real Sociedad snatching top spot to advance to the last 16.

However, Erik ten Hag's side have upped their game since the conclusion of the group stage, notching 14 wins in 18 outings to cement their status as one of Europe's most in-form teams.

Here, Sports Mole covers Man United's injury and suspension news ahead of the first leg against Barcelona, who have won each of their last 11 matches in all competitions.
