Line-ups confirmed as Garnacho benched for FA Cup fifth-round clash

Holders Manchester United will bid to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals as they host Fulham.

The Red Devils have endured a disastrous Premier League campaign but can salvage it by retaining their FA Cup crown under Ruben Amorim.

It will be no easy task against fellow top-flight side Fulham though, who currently sit five places above them in the table.

Amorim’s men squeezed into the fifth round with a controversial 2-1 win over Leicester at Old Trafford, with the Cottagers seeing off Wigan by the same scoreline.

Check out all the confirmed line-ups for the 4:30pm kick-off at the Theatre of Dreams.
