Erik ten Hag faces double Man Utd headache as Casemiro problem emerges

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has a decision to make on Casemiro, with the Brazil midfielder at risk of missing Sunday's game against Arsenal if he picks up a yellow card in midweek.

United remain the only team to have beaten Mikel Arteta's Gunners in the league this season, winning 3-1 at Old Trafford in September. They sit nine points adrift of the league leaders ahead of the trip to the Emirates Stadium, but have a game against Crystal Palace to navigate before then.

If Casemiro is booked at Selhurst Park on Wednesday, it would be his fifth yellow of the season, resulting in a one-match ban. However, the situation is complicated by the fact that Fred - in contention to step in if his compatriot is rested - is also one yellow card away from a suspension.
