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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the second leg of their Europa League playoff tie with Barcelona.

Manchester United will be looking to progress through to the Europa League last 16 when they play host to Barcelona in the second leg of their playoff tie on Thursday night.

The first fixture lived up to its billing, United coming from behind to lead at Camp Nou before Barcelona netted a late equaliser to leave the clubs locked at 2-2 on aggregate.

Erik ten Hag's team head into this contest having overcome a slow start versus Leicester City on Sunday to ultimately prevail by a 3-0 scoreline at Old Trafford.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the return clash with the Catalan giants.
