Manchester United head to this game as favorites but they will have to be very cautious against a Derby side that just recovered from a winless spate and with a fine run at home.

Why did we wait until Friday? Why did it take Mikel Arteta to get ill for the game in England to do the right thing?" the former England and Manchester United captain wrote in a column for the Sunday Times.

Chichester City are enjoying a positive season and could push for promotion and will be buoyed by the fact that this match is being televised and the fact that nobody expects them to win which should make for an entertaining and competitive ninety minutes of FA Cup action.
Aris is not that close to the top 3 teams in the league but have made it to the title group this season once more.

I was told by my county manager to get out so we just didn’t have time. One thing which could have given the club more time was a big transfer fee. Williams was offered a three-and-a-half-year deal by Celtic - and was told the Scottish giants had bid £150,000 for him - only one week before the end of Sporting Fingal.
