Our predictions for Man Utd v Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup, including who we think will win and predicted line-ups.
Manchester United face Nottingham Forest in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final on Wednesday evening as the Red Devils eye their first piece of silverware since 2017.
United have struggled to pick up trophies since Sir Alex Ferguson left Old Trafford, with their last successes coming in 2017 as they won the Europa League and the Carabao Cup.
Erik ten Hag’s men hold a 3-0 advantage heading into Wednesday’s second leg at Old Trafford after Marcus Rashford, Wout Weghorst and Bruno Fernandes netted in the first leg.
Forest’s form had picked up prior to their defeat last week against United, with Steve Cooper’s men going unbeaten in their last four Premier League games (won two, drawn two).
Cooper’s side are up to 13th in the league and they’ll be desperate to cause an upset and come from behind to set up a showdown against Newcastle or Southampton in the final.
