The Red Devils recently faced Chelsea at Stamford Bridge where they suffered a shock 4-3 loss in stoppage time.

They were leading 3-2 heading into the final minutes of stoppage time before two calamitous mistakes cost them the win.

Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans were both substituted with injuries in the game, and it appears Casemiro may have suffered a knock too.

Speaking after the game, manager Erik ten Hag said that he had to be taken off and we should know more about his condition soon.

There will probably be an update on Saturday. United fans will be hoping that the Brazilian is fully fit for the North West derby.

They managed to beat the Reds in the FA Cup quarter-final without Casemiro, but having him offers extra defensive solidity.

If he is sidelined, United should pair Kobbie Mainoo with Mason Mount instead of Scott McTominay , who gets dispossessed easily.
