Man Utd suffer injury blow ahead of Liverpool FA Cup clash

Manchester United midfielder Casemiro is set to miss today's FA Cup quarterfinal against Liverpool.

Brazil coach Dorival Junior has stated Casemiro is unavailable for the Selecao, so suggesting he won't make today's clash.

Dorival said: "We have just received a report from Dr. Rodrigo Lasmar.

"From a pre-list made by the Brazilian National Team's technical committee with 50 names, 13 of them were already away due to injury at their clubs.

"Unfortunately, we also lost Casemiro.

"Therefore, Pepe, from Porto, a native striker who now plays as a midfielder, is called up."
