In all competitions, the Red Devils have won six of the previous ten games, albeit in a consistently unconvincing fashion. With injuries to key personnel such as Amad Diallo, Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo as well as the likes of Rasmus Hojlund and Andr\u00e9 Onana enduring sustained periods of poor form, there is much for coach Amorim to ponder heading into the final months of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Manchester United Injuries to Consider<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Lisandro Martinez and Amad Diallo are ruled out for the season, with Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Altay Bayindir, Toby Collyer and Jonny Evans also ruled out through injury.
