sportsmole.co.uk, 18 April 2024, 09:46
Manchester United will be bidding to book their spot in the final of the FA Cup when they take on Championship outfit Coventry City in the semi-finals of the competition on Sunday.

Erik ten Hag's side will enter the match off the back of a 2-2 draw with Bournemouth in the Premier League last weekend, and they are currently seventh in the table, 13 points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.

The Red Devils are the second-most successful side in the history of the FA Cup, lifting the trophy on 12 occasions, with their last triumph coming back in 2016.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Coventry, who won this competition back in 1987.
