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

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League fixture with Everton.

Manchester United make the trip to Everton on Sunday afternoon looking to keep the pressure on fourth-placed Chelsea in the Premier League standings.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has witnessed his team pick up seven points from the last three matches, as well as keep clean sheets in each of those fixtures.

United warmed up the contest on Merseyside with a 5-0 triumph over Club Brugge on Thursday night, a result which took the club into the last 16 of the Europa League.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the meeting at Goodison Park.
