United v Wolves: Essential information
Manchester United will face Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford on Wednesday night, in our Emirates FA Cup third-round replay.
Following the 0-0 draw last time out at Molineux, the sides go head-to-head once more for a place in the fourth round, with an away tie at Tranmere Rovers or Watford at stake.
Our third fixture at Old Trafford since the turn of the year will also be our third home game in a row in different competitions, following the Carabao Cup defeat to Manchester City and an impressive 4-0 win against Norwich City in the Premier League.
