Manchester United set to receive triple fitness boost for FA Cup semi-final

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag expects Antony, Scott McTominay and Harry Maguire to all be available for Sunday's FA Cup semi-final with Coventry City.

Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag is expecting Antony, Scott McTominay and Harry Maguire to all be available for Sunday's FA Cup semi-final with Coventry City.

Antony was absent against Bournemouth last weekend due to a slight muscular issue, while a knee problem has forced McTominay to miss the club's last two fixtures against Liverpool and the Cherries.

Maguire had also emerged as a doubt for the FA Cup semi-final when it was revealed that he had picked up a thigh issue during the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth last time out.

The centre-back has missed training sessions this week, but Ten Hag is confident that he will be back for Sunday's fixture alongside both Antony and McTominay.

"Antony and Scott [McTominay], I expect them to be back. We have some problems, Harry [Maguire] struggled with a small injury against Bournemouth. He didn't train this week so far but he's now back on the pitch and I think he'll be available for Sunday," the Dutchman told reporters during his pre-match press conference.

Man United's squad is set to be boosted on Sunday

However, Tyrell Malacia, Anthony Martial, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, Victor Lindelof, Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans are all still unavailable for Man United.

Ten Hag admitted that he has been "frustrated" with his team's recent results, with Man United entering the clash with Coventry boasting just one win from their last five matches in all competitions.

"Yes, of course we want to win every game so when we don't win we are disappointed. We are frustrated but we know also we can beat the best teams," he added on Friday afternoon.

"We drew twice against Liverpool, we beat them in the FA Cup, we played very good against Chelsea. When we play to our levels we can achieve really high highs. Last season was last season.

"We want to achieve every season, we want to win trophies, we have a big opportunity. We are in a semi-final but it's a huge challenge."

Ten Hag bidding to win second trophy as Man United manager

Man United won the EFL Cup last season in Ten Hag's first campaign at the helm, and they are bidding for more domestic silverware in 2023-24.

The Red Devils will be the huge favourites to overcome their Championship opponents on Sunday afternoon, and a victory would place them in the final against either Chelsea or Manchester City.

Securing the FA Cup would not necessarily mean that Ten Hag keeps his job, though, due to the team's struggles in the Premier League this season.

The 20-time English champions have won just one of their last seven league matches, which has seen their hopes of playing Champions League football again next season fade.

The Red Devils, who will be back in league action at home to Sheffield United on April 24, are seventh in the division, 13 points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa with a game in hand. body check tags ::
