West Ham boss Slaven Bilic confirms reserve goalkeeper Darren Randolph will play for the Hammers at Old Trafford. "He has been great for us when he has played this season. He deserves his chance," says Bilic.

"Manchester United are a wounded animal and we know what to expect on Sunday. They still had good spells against Liverpool and at home they will better.

"We want the game to start and we are doing everything to reach Wembley."  

West Ham may well be in the last eight of the FA Cup, but they are not dreaming of Wembley just yet.

"We are confident of getting a result on Sunday as we are playing well and have more options now as players are back from injury," says boss Slaven Bilic.

"We are going to one of the biggest stadiums and it will be very difficult. But we are very confident going into the game.

"We are not thinking about Wembley. We are focused on the game this weekend and it is a massive game for us."

Spurs might have lost 3-0 to Borussia Dortmund in the Europa League on Thursday night but Villa manager Remi Garde knows they will still give his struggling side a test at Villa Park on Sunday.

"I've watched a lot of European football this week," he said. "Last night's game was tough for Tottenham but I'm not relying on them going on a bad run. The chance for Spurs to win the title will give them a lot of motivation.  

"Spurs have been on a good run throughout the season. It's going to be difficult for us. It'll be tough for them to win the title, the race is tight. They have very good players. They've been playing in Europe which is very demanding. 

"I prefer to focus and concentrate on my own team. It's much more efficient for me to try and control what I can control which is my players and my team."

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic's news conference has started. His side play Manchester United away from home in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Sunday.

Bilic is forecasting a tough afternoon on Sunday. He says: "Last night it was not a game you can take as a normal game for Manchester United. It was intimidating for them and it is hard to play away.

"We're expecting a good side to play in front of their own fans and we are expecting a better performance from them.

"They had a great performance against Arsenal at home. They are a massive club and have one of the biggest managers in the business." 

Things are looking bleak at Aston Villa at the moment. They are eight points adrift at the foot of the Premier League table but manager Remi Garde is not giving up yet as they prepare to face Spurs on Sunday.

"In football you never know what can happen and I still believe we can win many games between now and the end of the season," Garde insists.  

"We can still stay up. If you look at Leicester last season, they started now and they ended up winning seven games.  

"The Leicester City group wasn't built the year they stayed up, they were together three or four years before. You have to build. To win seven games you need good spirit. My job is to try to put the best spirit as possible in my team."

In Thursday night's Super League action, Stefan Marsh scored a hat-trick as Widnes beat Hull FC 46-6 to go two points clear at the top of the table.

Frank Pritchard went over for the visitors, but Joe Mellor and Corey Thompson responded to put Widnes ahead.

Marsh, Rhys Hanbury, Kevin Brown and Thompson added further tries as the hosts claimed a fifth win in six games.

Italian sports newspaper Corriere dello Sport has a picture of Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, who is aiming to keep his 10th successive Serie A clean sheet tonight when his side entertain Sassuolo.

Buffon has gone 836 minutes without conceding a league goal - the third longest run ever from any goalkeeper in Italy's top-flight.

If he gets to the 67-minute mark tonight without conceding then he will overtake Dino Zoff to move second. A clean sheet versus Sassuolo will take Buffon only three minutes away from record holder Sebastiano Rossi.

The former AC Milan goalkeeper went 929 consecutive minutes without letting a goal in between 12 December, 1993 and 27 February, 1994. The newspaper's headline translates as 'challenge the myth'.
