This is the fourth FA Cup meeting between Manchester United and Leicester City – the Red Devils won the first two (3-1 in the 1962-63 final, 2-1 in the 1975-76 fifth round) while the Foxes won 3-1 in the most recent game in the 2020-21 quarter-final on their way to lifting the trophy.

Manchester United have already beaten Leicester twice at Old Trafford this season (5-2 in League Cup, 3-0 in the Premier League), with current Foxes boss Ruud van Nistelrooy in charge of United for both wins. They’ve never won three home games against one club in a season before, with Man City against Chelsea in 2022-23 the last time a Premier League side did so against a fellow top-flight opponent.

Manchester United have won 16 of their last 18 home FA Cup matches (D2), although one of those draws saw them eliminated on penalties by Middlesbrough in February 2022. The last visiting side to win in normal time at Old Trafford were Arsenal in March 2015, a 2-1 victory.

Leicester City have progressed from seven of their last eight FA Cup fourth round ties; the other was a 4-1 away defeat to Nottingham Forest in 2021-22.

Bruno Fernandes has been involved in 10 goals in his last 10 FA Cup appearances for Manchester United (7 goals, 3 assists), scoring their goal in the 1-1 draw with Arsenal in the third round this year.
