JAKARTA - Manchester United (MU) will host Fulham in the last eight of the FA Cup on Sunday, March 19. In the match at Old Trafford Stadium at 23.30 WIB, the host has ambitions to collect the second title this season.
The Red Devils managed to collect a 3-1 comeback win over West Ham United in the fifth half, while Cottagers beat Leeds United 2-0 to advance to this point.
The journey of Erik ten Hag's troops encountered a bit of trouble due to the busy schedule in recent weeks. However, this situation did not stop them from defeating Real Betis with certainty in the Europa League Round of 16.
Manchester United's last trip to the FA Cup only reached the semifinals, that moment occurred in the 2019/2020 season under the direction of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
To be able to win from Marco Silva's team, Erik Ten Hag's troops need to go through a match with hard work. This effort will not be difficult considering MU's excellent journey in this season's competition.
Meanwhile, Fulham will visit Old Trafford with uncomfortable feelings. The reason is, last week they were dumped by Arsenal.
The Gunners beat them with a dominant first half appearance and beat them 3-0. A trip to Emirates without Joao Palhinha, who was suspended for two games, became a difficult moment for Fulham.
But the good news is, Fulham will welcome the Portuguese midfielder back to the squad for Sunday's match against Manchester United. This trip is Fulham's first record to make it to the FA Cup quarter-finals since the 2009/2010 season.
