5. Yeovil Town vs. Manchester United

There are two games on Friday night, one of which sees League Two side, Yeovil Town, host Manchester United. The Glovers, as they’re nicknamed, will be looking to pull off the upset of all upsets and write their name into Cup history.

Jose Mourinho will be well aware of a potential giant killing and should have a calculated approach to deal with this kind of match. However, there will still be a small thought in the back of the Yeovil players’ minds that they could maybe pull off a shock.

One thing that’s certain is that no matter what the result this is set to be a great occasion which both sides enjoy. The Red Devils will almost certainly advance to the fifth round of the Cup but the fans, players and everyone to do with Yeovil Town will be ecstatic to face off against United.

For that reason this should be an entertaining match and definitely worth a watch. The Glovers are struggling in League Two so this cup match will give them some form of relief and perhaps refresh their players a little.

Mourinho should expect to be playing a team that are defending for their lives. Fortunately for the Portuguese manager, his side just played Burnley last week, so they definitely know how to get a win against a side set out not to lose.
