Manchester United have learnt their fate for the FA Cup quarter-finals should they progress past Nottingham Forest this evening.
Kick-off is fast approaching at The City Ground for tonight’s fifth-round tie, with Erik ten Hag making three changes across his starting line-up as the Reds look to progress in their quest for silverware and make amends for last December’s 2-1 defeat at the stadium.
The winner of the clash will host either Liverpool or Southampton in the next round; their meeting kicks off at 8pm tonight and is held at Anfield, so Jurgen Klopp’s men are the major favourites to reign victorious.
FA Cup quarter-final draw:
▪️ Wolves or Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Coventry City
▪️ Nottingham Forest or Manchester United vs. Liverpool or Southampton
▪️ Chelsea or Leeds United vs. Leicester City
▪️ Manchester City vs. Newcastle United— The Athletic | Football (@TheAthleticFC) February 28, 2024
Ties will be played over the weekend of March 16/17.
United are yet to face their longtime rivals at Old Trafford this term and when they lock horns in the Premier League on April 7, Erik ten Hag will be hoping to oversee a similar result to last season when goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford secured a 2-1 win.
