Aaron Ramsey is back in training for Arsenal as is Danny Welbeck, but neither will be available for selection against West Brom.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also misses out due to a slight muscle problem. Meanwhile, West Brom could see Jonny Evans return from a calf injury, but James Morrison is a doubt due to the flu.
Jamie Vardy begins his three-game suspension as Leicester City welcome Everton, while Christian Fuchs and Robert Huth are also suspended for Leicester City, with Danny Drinkwater facing a late fitness test.
Everton midfielder James McCarthy is out for three weeks with a hamstring injury.
Manchester United welcome back Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan in their fixture against Sunderland but Luke Shaw is still out.
Sunderland manager David Moyes returns to Old Trafford for the first time without the on-loan Adnan Januzaj, but Steven Pienaar, Javi Manquillo and Billy Jones have returned to training. They remain without a host of players: Jan Kirchhoff, Lynden Gooch, Paddy McNair, Duncan Watmore and Lee Cattermole.
