Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from their last-minute home defeat to Fulham at the weekend as they travel to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup 5th round.
The FA Cup is the last opportunity for United to win silverware this season as they’re nowhere near competing for the Premier League and have been knocked out of Europe entirely. They also failed to defend their Carabao Cup trophy after being picked apart by Newcastle in the early stages.
Erik ten Hag is once again under pressure, making tonight a must-win clash, ahead of an ever tougher test at the weekend – the Manchester derby.
The Sporting News is following Nottingham Forest vs Man United live, providing score updates, commentary and highlights as they happen.
