A string of injuries has plagued the season for Argentine World Cup winner Martinez.
The former Ajax player suffered a calf issue during his return from a prolonged knee problem, entering the field as a substitute during Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Brentford.
Martinez had replaced Lindelof after the Swede picked up a hamstring injury.
A difficult second season for United boss Erik ten Hag has been blighted by the consistent loss of key players to injury.
