Manchester United will kick off their FA Cup campaign with a home game against struggling Premier League outfits Everton. The venue: Old Trafford. Kickoff: 21:00.
Manchester United will look to extend their winning run at home to eight matches when they host Everton at Old Trafford in the FA Cup third round.
Man United have won their last seven home matches including wins over Arsenal and Tottenham and Erik ten Hag will become the first United manager post-Sir Alex Ferguson to win eight home matches in a row.
However, there’s a chance Ten Hag could use a weakened squad against Everton, which could eventually salvage his quest for a new record but the Dutchman is smart enough to field a team that is capable of causing the Toffees problems.
Jadon Sancho will miss the game as he’s not returned to the squad yet. Donny van de Beek and Axel Tuanzebe are ruled out of the game.
Goalkeeper: David de Gea
Defenders: Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Malacia
