Midfielder Casemiro of Manchester United is cleared to play against Nottingham Forest in tomorrow’s FA Cup fifth round, according to manager Erik ten Hag.

It was the Red Devils’ first loss of the year, only last week. In the Premier League, where they were consistently ranked second, Fulham defeated them 2-

In an important Cup match on Wednesday, Ten Hag will be looking for a big showing. He disclosed that Casemiro is ready to take on Nuno Santo’s team prior to kickoff at City Ground.

The Brazilian was bleeding after a clash of heads with Harrison Reed last weekend and he had to be substituted as a result. Ten Hag has confirmed his availability for the Forest trip.

He said via Manutd.com: “So it was bleeding, so he had to come off. It was not to our advantage that he couldn’t continue the game. But he’s available for tomorrow.”

In the Brazilian’s absence, Mainoo did not have the same dominance in the heart of the midfield. Scott McTominay was caught out of position on a number of occasions.

In our view, Casemiro and Mainoo are a perfect foil for each other. The former has been good with his tackling from the number six role while the latter has controlled possession.

Hence, Casemiro’s availability is a huge boost, but United must step up after the recent loss.

There was plenty of space left between the attack and defence last weekend. The Cottagers played through the high press. They created plenty of chances in the first half without scoring.

We could see something similar from Forest tomorrow. United need to be more decisive with their pressing and need to show better defensive discipline to avoid getting outnumbered at the back.
