Man Utd team news
Scott McTominay and Luke Shaw both remain doubtful for Mancjester United, but Jadon Sancho could finally return to the squad. However, the Red Devils will remain without Christian Eriksen, Anthony Martial, Diogo Dalot and Axel Tuanzebe, while Donny van de Beek is out for the season.
Erik ten Hag may be tempted to rest a couple of key figures with United holding such a healthy lead and having home advantage.

Man Utd vs Nottingham Forest score prediction
Their defeat to Arsenal notwithstanding, Manchester United are on a roll right now and in the first leg last week, they looked unstoppable once they rode the early Forest storm.
With home advantage and a big talent gap, it's hard to see the Red Devils not sealing their place at Wembley in style with another win.
That said, Steve Cooper's side are no pushovers and did test United in the first half last week. They won't go down without a fight on Wednesday and if the hosts do rotate, Forest will look to pounce.
Prediction: Man Utd 2-1 Nottingham Forest
