De Ligt (back) is set to remain unavailable for the upcoming fixture, according to coach Michael Carrick.

De Ligt's continued absence leaves Manchester United short of defensive options heading into the final stretch of the season. Lisandro Martinez is available again after suspension, which provides some relief at center-back, though the Dutch defender's unavailability means coach Michael Carrick will need to continue managing his defensive resources carefully. No return timeline has been provided, leaving his availability for the remaining fixtures uncertain.
