Manchester United are continuing their push to keep climbing the Premier League table after beating Crystal Palace 2-1.
The victory came thanks to goals from Joshua Zirkzee and Mason Mount, as Bruno Fernandes’ tricky free-kick assist set up Mount’s dramatic winner.
However, now all eyes are on The Red Devils’ clash with West Ham United tomorrow night.
Speaking in the pre-match press conferences, both managers have now aired their concerns over injured players who are set to miss the game.
Nuno Espirito Santo confirmed that Crysencio Summerville and Oliver Scarles will be missing the game through injury whilst Lucas Paqueta is out through suspension.
Now, Ruben Amorim has confirmed that as many as four of his squad could be set to miss the game.
While Benjamin Sesko and Harry Maguire have been confirmed to be out, two others have been teased as unable to play.
Speaking ahead of the game, Amorim commented: “We have two doubts for the game, I will not tell you today because we will change the way we are going to approach [the game].”
He continued: “Let’s see if they can play tomorrow. The rest of the squad is good. Matheus [Cunha] is good.
“Harry Maguire and Sesko [are out].”
With Amorim naming Maguire, Sesko and Cunha, but refusing to name the pair currently in doubt, it casts concerns to the rest of the squad.
Lisandro Martinez has just returned from long-term injury after tearing his ACL in February, whilst Mason Mount and Luke Shaw have also been plagued by injury at Old Trafford.
However, at this time, the duo Ruben Amorim is referring to remains to be seen.
Combining the two squads, it does mean that as many as eight could be set to miss the game, given that Lukasz Fabianski is also out injured for West Ham.
