Date Set For FA Cup Replay
Manchester United's Emirates FA Cup quarter-final replay against West Ham United will take place on Wednesday 13 April. Kick-off will be at 19:00 BST.
The two sides will therefore meet again exactly one month after the initial tie at Old Trafford on 13 March ended 1-1 with Anthony Martial's equaliser cancelling out Dimitri Payet's fine free-kick. The winners of the replay will meet Everton in the semi-final at Wembley on Saturday 23 April, kick-off 17:15 GMT.
The Reds' FA Cup trip to West Ham will fall in the midweek between the Barclays Premier League clashes with Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa. While the Hammers are in action on Saturday 9 April with an early kick-off at home to Arsenal, Louis van Gaal's men will not visit Spurs until a day later at 16:00 BST.
The replay, which will be the last-ever cup tie at Upton Park before West Ham move to the Olympic Stadium next season, will be shown live in the UK on BBC 1. The Reds are also set to play in the last league game at the Hammers' historic East London home, on Tuesday 10 May.
