Defenders cameo in a movie was something all fans were looking towards to for some time now, but let's be honest - it's unlikely. I mean fully-fledged cameo of few minutes. What can happen though is that Defenders will be referenced somehow, most likely unnoticeable to your average viewer. Remember Fury watching all the screens in Avengers 1? Imagine one or several of them have footage of Defenders - that's roughly the extent of a "cameo" that we can actually get. Or the newspaper, that someone suggested above, stuff like that.

They can actually show Defenders in flesh, but then it has to be a scene, where they show a crowd of people, or one of those "faces turning when they feel X is happening" from the comics. Chances of Avengers running into Daredevil in NYC back-alley are slim to none. It simply won't fit with the course of the story in the film, because - REMEMBER! - most people don't watch Netflix series or any Marvel TV shows for that matter.

To be honest I wouldn't even mind if Defenders are not in Infinity War at all. After all, it doesn't have to take place in NYC, does it? Just acknowledge it in the following series, so we'd know it's in the same universe. AoS and Agent Carter DO feel like they are stationed in the MCU. Netflix series are so vaguely connected, that they almost seem like a separate setting altogether
