FA Cup Clash: Manchester United Tipped to Unleash Fury on Leicester City as Van-Nistelrooy’s Job Hangs by a Thread

The FA Cup fourth round matchup between Manchester United and Leicester City at Old Trafford

on Friday will determine a team’s place in the fifth round.

The fourth round of the 2024–25 FA Cup begins this week, with 16 games scheduled between Friday

and Tuesday. The sole match on Friday is between Manchester United and Leicester City at Old

Trafford, where the two Premier League teams are fighting for a berth in the fifth round.

Manchester United defeated Arsenal on penalties in the previous round to advance to the FA Cup

fourth round. Despite being down a man for the majority of the game, the Red Devils managed to

hold off their Premier League opponents in an exciting contest. Leicester City, on the other side,

easily defeated Queens Park Rangers 6-2 in the third round, with five players scoring.

In the meantime, both Manchester United and Leicester City enter Friday’s FA Cup match fresh
