Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Manchester United ahead of their FA Cup showdown with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from their first defeat under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Monday night when they take on Chelsea in the fifth round of the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge.

After 10 wins and one draw from his opening 11 games at the helm, Solskjaer admitted that his side were given a "reality check" in their 2-0 home loss at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night.

With their Champions League hopes now hanging by a thread, the Red Devils must turn their attention to another piece of silverware, and a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup is up for grabs on Monday night.

The Red Devils overcame Arsenal in the last round and face another difficult test this time around, although with Liverpool next up Solskjaer could be tempted to rotate his squad.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the showdown.



MAN UTD'S INJURY LIST

Jesse Lingard

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: March 2

Lingard was forced off just before half time in the defeat to PSG and Solskjaer has since confirmed that he expects the midfielder to miss the next two games.



Anthony Martial

Status: Out
Type of injury: Groin
Possible return date: March 2

Lingard was swiftly followed off the field by Martial, who did not reappear for the second half against PSG having struggled with a muscle problem during the first. The Frenchman is also expected to miss United's next two games.



Antonio Valencia

Status: Out
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: February 24

Valencia is nearing a return having not featured since January 2, although a setback in training has knocked his expected return date back to February 24.



Matteo Darmian

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knock
Possible return date: February 24

Darmian will also miss the Chelsea match, although he too could be available once again by the time United face Liverpool on February 24.



Marcos Rojo

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knock
Possible return date: February 24

Having missed the vast majority of the season through injury, the upcoming match against Liverpool could also be an occasion for Rojo to return to the fold.



MAN UTD SUSPENSION LIST

United have no players suspended for this match. Paul Pogba was sent off against PSG, but that suspension only applies to the Champions League.
