Two weeks after their 2-2 draw with Tottenham Hotspur, Premier League giants Manchester United will take on Football League 2 club Newport County in what will be their first-ever meeting. The match will be played at Newport County’s home ground Rodney Parade.
This will be the first time since the 2005 FA Cup final that Manchester United will be traveling to Wales to play an FA Cup match. It will be interesting to see how Manchester United coach Erik ten Hag forms his starting line-up with many of the first-team players already out with injury. It is expected that several young players from the Red Devils will be taking on the field. What acts as an advantage for Manchester United is the return of Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez after he was sidelined with an injury back in August 2023.
For Newport County, it is all about playing for glory against a club like Manchester United. With the odds favouring Manchester United, it will be a big surprise if Newport County pulls off a win or a draw, where the latter will inflict a replay at the famous Old Trafford.
