The United captain has been booked four times in the top flight so far this season and one more yellow would bring a one-game ban. Should it come against the Cottagers he would miss the game against Luton Town at Old Trafford later this month. Premier League cards only apply in the top flight and do not transfer to other competitions. Any player who collects 10 yellow cards in the first 32 games of the season is handed a two-match ban. Should anyone reach 15 yellow cards in a season then a three-match suspension will follow.
