United shared a statement on Tuesday (2), to announce that both Martinez and Lindelof will be out of action for at least a month due to muscle injuries. Lindelof was withdrawn during the second half of the game against Brentford on Saturday (30) due to a hamstring problem.

The Swede was replaced by Martinez in the 69th minute. It was the first time the Argentinian had played since February, as he was suffering from a knee problem. But in his first game back, Martinez suffered a calf strain. 

Both defenders will miss the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry on April 21. They will also miss the league games against Bournemouth, Sheffield United, Burnley and Crystal Palace. United are sixth in the Premier League standings, 11 points off the top four with nine games to go.
