Another tough test for Manchester United?

By Emmanuel Ebimoh

After their impressive win against Arsenal in the FA Cup last weekend, the rejuvenated Manchester United will face another tough test in the 5^th round of the competition as they have been drawn to play Chelsea at Stamford bridge next month.

Ole Gunnar Solksjaer’s side, who were too clinical against Arsenal, will have to make everything count again when they face the cup holders, Chelsea.

With this fixture in place, it will mean that in a space of five weeks, Manchester United will have to play PSG twice in the UEFA Champions League, Liverpool (H), Arsenal (A), and Manchester City at home. Perhaps this might be a true test of their resilient.

In the other 5^th round FA Cup draws:

Bristol City v Shrewsbury/Wolves

AFC Wimbledon v Millwall

Doncaster v Crystal Palace

Chelsea v Manchester United

Swansea v Barnet/Brentford

Portsmouth/QPR v Watford

Brighton/West Brom v Derby

Games to be played between February 15 – 18.
