Newport County and Manchester United will face off for the first time ever in a competitive fixture this weekend, as the pair meet at Rodney Parade in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The League Two outfit beat National League side Eastleigh in a replay to line up what manager Graham Coughlan has called the biggest game in the Welsh club's history.

Newport are mid-table in the third tier and will be sizeable underdogs, but this is not a game that Erik ten Hag and co can take for granted, as their hosts have caused problems for bigger sides in cup competitions in recent years – beating Leicester City and Middlesbrough, as well as taking Tottenham Hotspur to a replay.

2023/24 has been a difficult campaign so far for Man Utd, but another deep run in the FA Cup could help to turn their season around.

Fans will no doubt be looking at the trip to South Wales as a potential banana skin, but with a fortnight's rest thanks to the winter break, it would be no surprise to see Ten Hag name a strong XI, as he did in the 2-0 win against Wigan Athletic in the last round.
