Man United Team news: Mourinho facing injury crisis in defence ahead of Arsenal clash

Manchester United made easy work of Watford FC during the week but will be up against a much firmer test this weekend.

The Red Devils travel down south to London to face an in-form Arsenal side at then Emirates stadium.

Jose Mourinho’s side are still eight points adrift of their biter rivals Manchester City in the Premier League. The Portuguese tactician knows a defeat could spell an end to their title challenge.

United will be facing Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil, who has been linked with a move to the Red Devils. The Germany international has a good relationship with manager Jose Mourinho. The pair won the La Liga together during their spell at Real Madrid.

Man United Team news:

United boss Jose Mourinho is facing injury problems in defence. Both Eric Bailly and Phil Jones are both major doubts going into the weekend clash.

Marouane Fellaini and Nemanja Matic are also slight doubts coming into the Arsenal game.
