The Red Devils lost to Tottenham 3-0 earlier in the season, and they will be looking for revenge when the contest kicks off, per Opta Analyst.

Plenty of controversy is expected since there will be no VAR in this match. The technology will only be used at the semi-final stage of the competition.

This has been the case since the 2019/20 season. The technology was used in all rounds in 2018/19 before it was introduced in the Premier League the following season.

It was scrapped in the early rounds to ensure no one gets an unfair advantage, per Football London. The technology will be used in the two-legged semi-final stage.
