Norwich City v Man United: The essential info

Friday 26 June 2020 08:00

Manchester United return to Emirates FA Cup duty on Saturday, when the Reds travel to Carrow Road to face Norwich City.

Over three months have passed since our fifth-round tie against Derby County at Pride Park, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side now face the Canaries for a place in the semi-finals and, of course, another trip to Wembley Stadium.

United have already beaten Daniel Farke's relegation-threatened side twice in the Premier League this season, with a 3-1 result in Norfolk followed up by a 4-0 thrashing at Old Trafford.

Here's everything you need to know ahead of the tie, including what TV channel the game will be on, the referee and more...

UNITED'S ROAD TO THE QUARTERS

Our march to the Wembley arch began all the way back in early January, as the Reds came up against regular adversaries Wolverhampton Wanderers. Unlike the previous campaign, which saw the Reds defeated at Molineux, a goalless draw in the Black Country forced a replay, and Juan Mata scored the winner when the teams reconvened at Old Trafford.

Next came League One outfit Tranmere Rovers, who had defeated Premier League Watford to make it to the fourth round. There would be no such giantkilling at Prenton Park, as United cruised through 6-0 thanks to strikes from Harry Maguire, Diogo Dalot, Jesse Lingard, Phil Jones, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood.

Days before the suspension of football, the Reds then faced the Rams, after making the trip to Pride Park. A rare goal for Luke Shaw, followed up by a brace from Odion Ighalo, ensured our progression through to the quarter-finals at the expense of Wayne Rooney and co.
