Manchester United XI vs Fulham: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for FA Cup game today

Manchester United have named a strong side as they host Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-finals as Casemiro begins his four-game suspension.

The influential Brazilian midfielder was sent off for the second time this season during last week’s frustrating goalless home Premier League draw with relegation strugglers Southampton and will now miss four crucial games for Erik ten Hag’s side. Marcel Sabitzer and Scott McTominay start in midfield in his absence.

Winger Antony missed the Europa League last-16 second-leg win over Real Betis on Thursday night due to illness but makes the bench here. Anthony Martial is not available despite returning to training after hip problems.

Christian Eriksen and Donny van de Beek are both long-term absentees for United, with Alejandro Garnacho also now sidelined for several weeks with an ankle injury. Jadon Sancho gets the nod to start.
