Manchester United needed penalties to overcome a spirited Coventry side in their FA Cup semi-final on Sunday and will want to put that behind them when taking on Sheffield United.

Erik ten Hag’s side conceded three goals against the Championship side, who had lost three of their previous four matches before the trip to Wembley.

However, Manchester United held their nerve on penalties to book a place in the final and will take on local rivals Manchester City.

Sheffield United go into the game rooted to the foot of the Premier League, seven points behind 19th-placed Burnley and 10 from safety.
