Man Utdvs.Rangers

With two matches remaining in the League Phase of this competition, United sit in seventh place in the standings, leaving the Red Devils in a promising position as they bid to qualify for the last 16.

Nevertheless, Ruben Amorim's side head into this contest on the back of a morale-sapping 3-1 defeat at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Sunday.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's injury and suspension news ahead of welcoming the Scottish giants to the Theatre of Dreams.

Victor Lindelof

Status: Out

Type of injury: Unspecified

Possible return date: Unknown

Lindelof was forced off in the first half of last month's clash with Tottenham Hotspur due to an injury problem, and the Sweden international remains on the sidelines for the Red Devils.

Luke Shaw

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: February 8 (vs. Leicester City)

Amorim recently indicated at a press conference that Shaw was "one or two weeks away" from returning. Although that leaves the left-back on the sidelines for this contest, he could seemingly come back into contention at the start of February.

Mason Mount

Status: Out

Type of injury: Unspecified

Possible return date: Unknown

Mount was again absent against Brighton due to the problem which forced him off the field against Manchester City in the Manchester derby last month, and the Englishman is still not close to making his return.

Jonny Evans

Status: Out

Type of injury: Unspecified

Possible return date: Unknown

Evans has not been involved since the EFL Cup quarter-final tie against Spurs on December 19 and is highly likely to remain out of contention here.
