With Wolves having a wonderful first season back in the Premier League, their cup run has provided a tangible chance of silverware whilst they assert themselves as the best side outside the top six.

They’ve already knocked out Liverpool and have a fantastic record against top six sides in the league, taking 10 points from 9 games including a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge last weekend.

Solskjaer’s side will be weary of this, but they have overcome bigger obstacles in recent weeks, most famously their 3-1 win in Paris to reach the quarter finals of the Champions League.

Now that United face the prospect of Lionel Messi in the next round, the FA Cup is now their easiest route to silverware by a long way.

United can’t afford to take the game for granted if they want a trip to Wembley in April.

What time does it start?

Wolves vs Manchester United kicks off at 19:55 on Saturday 16th March

Where can I watch it?

The game will be shown live on BBC One

Player to watch:

Wolves’ number nine was frustrating to watch at the beginning of the season, but now he’s flying. Raul Jimenez has scored 12 goals and made 6 assists in the league this season, an almost identical record with Alexandre Lacazette. He will provide the main threat to Man United on Saturday.
