Manchester United will be without Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez for Friday’s FA Cup clash with Leicester.

Martinez was taken off on a stretcher during United’s 2-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday, with the club later confirming the Argentine had suffered a serious knee injury.

England defender Shaw had recently returned to training but Amorim has confirmed the defender has suffered a “small” setback in his recovery and will not be risked.

It is unwelcome news for the United boss, who has struggled to turn things around at the club since replacing Erik ten Hag in November.

United are also without Jonny Evans and Mason Mount.

Man Utd predicted XI: Onana; Yoro, Maguire, de Ligt; Mazraoui, Ugarte, Fernandes; Dalot; Diallo, Zirkzee, Garnacho

Injured: Martinez, Evans, Mount, Shaw

Time and date: 7pm GMT on Friday 7pm GMT February 2025

Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester
