Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes will be suspended for their next Premier League clash against Newcastle United on Monday.

Fernandes picked up two yellow cards against Wolves on Boxing Day, which automatically triggers a one-match ban.

The Portugal midfielder has become the first United player in the last decade to be sent off three times across all competitions in a single season.

The 30-year-old was shown a red card during their 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur. However, that decision was eventually overturned.

Fernandes was also sent off as United drew 3-3 with FC Porto in the Europa League.

Manuel Ugarte will also miss the game against Newcastle, as he picked up his fifth yellow card of this season.
