EFL Cup Final Man United vs Nottm Forest Kick Off Time

NAME: Man United vs Nottm Forest
DATE: 1 Feb 2023
TIME: 20:00 UTC
VENUE: Old Trafford

 

Nottingham Forest will endeavour to pull off an improbable comeback when they travel to meet Manchester United in the second leg of their EFL Cup semi-final on Wednesday night.

The Red Devils have one foot in the final courtesy of a dominant 3-0 success at the City Ground last week, and either Southampton or Newcastle United will await Erik ten Hag’s men at Wembley, assuming they can avoid a calamitous collapse here.

 

 

Marcus Rashford took all of six minutes to break the deadlock before Wout Weghorst came up with his first goal for the Red Devils just before the break, and Bruno Fernandes put the cherry on the icing on the cake with 89 minutes played.

No stranger to winning trophies during his time in charge of Ajax – who have just sacked his successor Alfred Schreuder – Ten Hag is now potentially only 180 minutes away from clinching Man United’s first piece of silverware since 2017, and the prospect of a domestic cup double is still alive too.

 

 

Indeed, a strong Red Devils XI cruised past Reading 3-1 in the FA Cup fourth round at the weekend, with Casemiro bagging a brace alongside an effort for Fred, which extended Man United’s scoring streak to a whopping 19 games across all competitions.

No team to hold a three-goal lead from the first leg of an EFL Cup semi-final has ever been eliminated, but the more superstitious Man United fans may not be cheering for a victory here, as the Red Devils have lost all three of their EFL Cup finals when winning both legs of the semis.
