  1. 'United will have the edge'published at 19:26 British Summer Time 2 April 2019

    Wolves v Man Utd (19:45 BST)

    I think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will go for it, while I am not sure the Wolves players will be looking at this game in the same way.

    I don't care who you are, if you are playing in an FA Cup semi-final at the weekend, you are not going to be flying into 50-50 challenges and running the risk of getting hurt.

    That's the way it is - everyone wants to play at Wembley - and that is one of the reasons United will have the edge.

    Prediction: 0-2

    • Wolves, who knocked Manchester United out of the FA Cup last month, are looking to beat the Red Devils twice in the same season for the first time since 1979-80.
    • Wolves have alternated between victory and defeat in the four previous Premier League meetings at Molineux, most recently losing 5-0 in March 2012.
    • September's reverse fixture ended in a 1-1 draw with Wolves' Joao Moutinho cancelling out Fred's opener.

    Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo: "That was a big moment [last month's FA Cup win over United], but Tuesday is totally different.

    "We competed well. We were very organised and we have to do it again because it will require a lot from us.

    "Every time we face a team like Manchester United we have to be ready to compete. We know how good they are - fantastic players, fantastic manager, all the history of a huge club, but we are ready and we want to compete well in Molineux"."

    Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: "Last time [in the FA Cup] we didn't play well enough against them, didn't have enough tempo. It was a different type of game for us, we had the ball for 70% of the time but sometimes possession doesn't mean you're going to create chances and score goals."

  5. 'Impressive Watford'published at 19:19 British Summer Time 2 April 2019

    Watford v Fulham (19:45 BST)

    Owen Coyle
    Former Bolton manager on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Watford have been very impressive this year. When Javi Gracia has made changes, he's had the players to replace like-for-like. They've got pace, power and individual skill and they were outstanding at Man Utd on Saturday.

    On another day, they would have won.

  6. 'Watford have had a good campaign'published at 19:16 British Summer Time 2 April 2019

    Watford v Fulham (19:45 BST)

    Fulham will be relegated if they lose at Vicarage Road and I think their short stay in the Premier League is about to come to an end.

    Whatever happens now Watford have had a good campaign, and it could turn into a very good one.

    Prediction: 2-0

    Watford head coach Javi Gracia on the club's upcoming FA Cup semi-final: "I think the best way to prepare for that important game we play on Sunday is to try and win the next game. That is the best way to respect the FA Cup and to respect the Premier League as well.

    "I will choose the players I want, but I am always thinking about the best formation and the best line-up to win the next game."

    Fulham caretaker manager Scott Parker: "Performances have progressively got better, but we understand the result is key...

    "The biggest challenge is to keep the players focused. Of course, confidence is low. It's been a really tough year, and there are scars. We need to keep pushing standards."

    Marcus Rashford has a new ankle injury.

    Ander Herrera's absence is also due to injury and nothing to do with the rumours that he has agreed to join Paris St-Germain next season.

  14. 'A draw would merely delay the inevitable'published at 18:56 British Summer Time 2 April 2019

    Watford v Fulham (19:45 BST)

    Conor McNamara
    BBC commentator

    Fulham's long goodbye could be confirmed at Vicarage Road.

    Despite a record investment last summer , external- the most ever spent by a newly-promoted club - defeat here would seal relegation with five games remaining.

    Given Fulham's goal difference, even a draw would merely delay the inevitable.

    Watford haven't lost at home in any competition since Boxing Day and, depending on results elsewhere, Javi Gracia's side could leapfrog Everton, Leicester and Wolves this midweek.

    The top six remains a closed shop, but the battle to be seventh and 'best of the rest' is in Watford's sights now.
