Robbo is taking charge of the Reds again, with Dimitar Berbatov, Ronny Johnsen, Louis Saha and Danny Simpson confirmed squad members.

The Reds and the Saints will meet at St Mary's to mark the 50th anniversary of the 1976 FA Cup final.

Le Tissier, a much-respected opponent during his time with Southampton as a loyal one-club man, is to be player-manager of the hosts.

Kick-off at St Mary's on Saturday 28 March is at 15:00 GMT.

Tickets are available to purchase from £10 for Reds fans.

We do not have a first-team fixture across this weekend, and United Women are not in action until the Sunday, with the home derby against Manchester City on the agenda.

More names for the event will be announced in due course.
