Norwich City have had it rough this season and they will be glad to put aside their Premier league woes as they focus on this home match against Manchester United in the FA Cup. The two sides have had mixed fortunes since the resumption of football; while United have done well, Norwich have suffered straight defeats. Norwich lost 3-0 at home to Southampton then Everton. Their hopes of staying up have been dented badly and they will be hoping to get some reprieve in the FA Cup. This will be the third Premier League opponent in the FA Cup for Norwich after eliminating Burnley and Tottenham in the last two rounds. Notably, it will be the first time in the FA Cup this season, that they are playing at home and having had a poor home run, they will be keen to make use of this chance. Norwich have nine losses in their last 15 home matches. They have conceded at least two goals in 10 of the 15 matches at home, while they have failed to score in three of the last four, which they have also lost. However, they have failed to score in just three of the last 15 matches at home. They have no win in the FA Cup at home in seven matches, and their only win in 11 at home in the cup, came in 2012, against Burnley.

While Norwich are struggling, Manchester United are on a roll. They handed Sheffield United a 3-0 beating in their last match, making it 13 unbeaten. Anthony Martial scored a hat trick in the game and will be expected to play a key role against Norwich. Of the 13 unbeaten matches, United have won nine and kept 10 clean sheets. They do not have as many clean sheets away from home though. In their last five matches, they have just two clean sheets, but they have scored in each of these. This will be the second premier League opponent for United, who have already faced off with Wolverhampton Wanderers, twice. In their four FA Cup matches so far, United have not conceded a goal and have won three. They have scored 10 in the last three FA Cup matches.
