Confirmed match officials: Manchester United vs Fulham (FA Cup)

Manchester United and Fulham will face off at Old Trafford for a place in the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley.

With the fixture set to kick off on Sunday afternoon, Manchester United will be looking to make their second trip to Wembley this season after it became the site of Erik ten Hag‘s first trophy as United manager.

United have had multiple clashes with refereeing decisions in recent matches, with Ten Hag recently claiming that the fixture against Southampton last weekend.

He further discussed Casemiro’s red card during the tie, explaining: “Casemiro has played over 500 games in Europe. He never had a red card. Now, in 20 games in the Premier League he has [two], so… What I think is the inconsistency, players don’t know any more what the policy is.”
