How to watch today's Manchester United vs Leicester FA Cup game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Manchester United will welcome Ruud van Nistelrooy's Leicester City to Old Trafford for an FA Cup fourth-round showdown.

The Red Devils booked their spot in this stage with a dramatic triumph over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, sealing victory in a tense penalty shootout. Ruben Amorim's men will fancy their chances of progressing further as they prepare to take on Leicester.

Despite United's ongoing struggles—most recently exposed in a Premier League loss to Crystal Palace on home turf—they remain optimistic about their prospects against the Foxes. Meanwhile, Leicester, still reeling from a bruising 4-0 defeat to Everton, will be eager to bounce back and find their rhythm under Van Nistelrooy.
