FA Cup semi-final: Manchester United v Chelsea - What time? What channel? How do I stream it? What is the team news?

Manchester United and Chelsea will face off on Sunday evening in this weekend’s second FA Cup semi-final.

On Saturday, Arsenal stunned holders Manchester City to book their place in the final on August 1.

Team News

Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw will miss the semi-final with Chelsea due to an ankle injury.

But Shaw’s replacement Brandon Williams is expected to be fit despite suffering a horrific cut to his head against Southampton on Monday.

Speaking about whether Jesse Lingard or Sergio Romero could feature on Sunday, Solskjaer said: "The team is not selected yet. Jesse and Sergio both have a good chance of being involved.

"Jesse is a part of the club. He has worked really hard and he deserves his chance to come back in. We know his qualities. He has different qualities to other players and he knows we value him."

Meanwhile for Lampard’s Chelsea, N’Golo Kante is still missing due to a hamstring injury.

And teenage prospect Billy Gilmour is also unavailable as he will miss the rest of the season after having knee surgery.
