Manchester United XI vs Nottingham Forest: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup and injury latest
@Source: standard.co.uk
Ruben Amorim is set to be strengthened in defence for Manchester United’s trip to face Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night.
The international break has provided a chance for United’s injury worries to ease and Amorim confirmed at his pre-match press conference that both Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro are now available.
Maguire has been out since the end of February with a calf injury, while Yoro picked up a foot injury against Arsenal in early March.
Amorim must decide whether to bring one or both of the defenders straight back into the starting lineup, with Victor Lindelof likely to be the player to make way if changes are made.
Ayden Heaven will not be involved at the City Ground after he was stretchered off against Leicester before the international break, but he has avoided a significant injury.
"It was not so serious," Amorim said Monday. "He is recovering, [he is] not ready to play, but he will return this season for sure."
The match will come too soon for Jonny Evans and Kobbie Mainoo but the pair are both nearing a return to action, while Luke Shaw returned to training last week but United will be cautious with a player that has not started a match this season.
Amorim said: "Luke [Shaw] is not ready yet. We are starting to do some drills with the team but we are building Luke.”
Chido Obi is unavailable, after United decided to make him available for the FA Youth Cup instead, but Joshua Zirkzee will hope to come back into the side, potentially in place of Christian Eriksen.
Predicted Man United XI: Onana; Mazraoui, De Ligt, Yoro; Dalot, Fernandes, Ugarte, Dorgu; Garnacho, Zirkzee; Hojlund
Injured: Martinez, Heaven, Evans, Shaw, Mainoo, Amad
Date and time: 8pm BST, Tuesday April 1, 2025
