The Red Devils have hit peak form under manager Michael Carrick and they are currently fourth in the standings after a fantastic run.

They are scheduled to host the Eagles this weekend and ahead of the game, Carrick has confirmed the absence of three players.

Mason Mount and Matthijs de Ligt are still sidelined with muscle and back injuries and won't be involved against the Eagles.

Alongside the duo, Patrick Dorgu is ruled out with a hamstring setback.

Carrick did not provide any update on the fitness of Lisandro Martinez, who missed the recent outing against Everton with a calf issue.

However, it is most likely that he won't be fit in time for the game too. Hence, United are set to be without four key players on Sunday.

Despite this, they are favourites to secure a sixth win in seven games.
