United will definitely be without the suspended Diogo Dalot for the match, though Maguire has been listed as a doubt following his heroic performance in North London at the weekend. Lisandro Martinez should be fit enough to start after his own fitness scare, while there are a couple of long-term injury issues to contend with.

Here is all the latest injury news and potential return dates ahead of the Southampton match:

Lisandro Martinez - 16 January vs Southampton (H)

Martinez was moved into attack against Arsenal due to fitness issues but Amorim believes he is 'okay' to face Southampton tonight.

Harry Maguire - 16 January vs Southampton (H)

Maguire is a doubt to start tonight after his heroic performance against Arsenal. Amorim said 'we will see' whether he is fit enough to be involved. You can expect to see him on the bench at the least.

Victor Lindelof - 23 January vs Rangers

Lindelof has been sidelined since injury in the Carabao Cup defeat to Tottenham last month. He could return at some point in the next few weeks.

Jonny Evans - 23 January vs Rangers

Evans has missed the last two matches due to an unspecified issue. He could back back at some stage this month but United are looking to manage his fitness carefully.

Luke Shaw - 2 February vs Crystal Palace (H)

United will see 'in the next week or two' if Shaw is able to return from his latest setback. He could be back by the start of February if everything goes according to plan.

Mason Mount - 8 March vs Arsenal (H)

Amorim says Mount will be out 'longer' than Shaw but he is still expected back in action before the end of the season. He could return next month or in early March.
