Prediction: 1-2
Manchester United
Expect an electrifying atmosphere at Wembley Stadium when Coventry City and Manchester United square off against each other in the FA Cup semi-finals on Sunday afternoon. The Sky Blues aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Southampton and Birmingham City and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the Red Devils. Both Tatsuhiro Sakamoto and Jamie Allen are sidelined with injuries for the nominal hosts.
Erik ten Hag’s troops, on the other hand, aim to save the season by going all the way in the FA Cup. After weeks of intensive preparation, Manchester United are poised to showcase their worth on the field and we predict that they will give fans some cheer this weekend. The likes of Jonny Evans, Scott McTominay, Lisandro Martinez, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial, and Tyrell Malacia are injured for the nominal visitors. In their last meeting in the FA Cup, back in 1987, Coventry defeated Man Utd, meaning that the Red Devils are hungry for revenge.
