It has been confirmed today that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men will host the Hornets at Old Trafford on Saturday 9 January 2020 at 20:00 GMT, with the match set to be broadcast live on BT Sport in the UK.
If the match is even after 90 minutes then a period of extra time will take place, followed by a penalty shootout if required. There are no replays in the FA Cup this season, in order to ease some of the pressure on the football calendar that has been caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
United are determined to win the FA Cup this season after reaching the competition’s semi-finals in 2019/20, when the Reds were unfortunately beaten by Chelsea at Wembley Stadium.
