Manchester United confirmed squad members for Arsenal fixture as five ruled out

Man Utd face Arsenal in the FA Cup third round on Sunday afternoon.

Marcus Rashford was not spotted in the Manchester United squad that travelled to London for their FA Cup third-round clash with Arsenal. United are back in action when they face their old foes at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon and went down to the capital on Saturday evening.

The 27-year-old missed United's draw with Liverpool last weekend due to injury and has not been spotted participating in any training sessions during the week. Rashford has not featured under Ruben Amorim since they defeated Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League a month ago today.

United have named a strong squad for the Arsenal clash, though they are certain to make at least one change from the starting line up that drew with Liverpool last time out, with Altay Bayindir in line to start only his fifth competitive match for the club.

It appears to be the same squad of players who drew at Anfield a week ago, with Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof still out through injury. Speaking ahead of the match, Amorim revealed Amad Diallo was also a doubt, though he was spotted heading to London.

"Vic [Victor Lindelof] continues out, Jonny [Evans] continues out," Amorim told MUTV. "Amad has a little injury but I think he can recover. Luke Shaw continues his improvement, Mason Mount also. The rest are strong to compete for a place and to play again."

Confirmed United squad members: Onana, Bayindir, Heaton, Dalot, Mazraoui, De Ligt, Yoro, Maguire, Martinez, Malacia, Mainoo, Ugarte, Casemiro, Collyer, Fernandes, Eriksen, Antony, Garnacho, Zirkzee, Hojlund, Amad.
