Manchester United will be looking for a rapid recovery this weekend as they face Brighton & Hove Albion in a crunch FA Cup semifinal clash at Wembley Stadium.
Erik ten Hag's side bowed out of Europe in midweek, following a dismal 3-0 Europa League quarterfinal second-leg defeat at Sevilla, with the Dutch coach also facing a growing injury crisis ahead of taking on the Seagulls.
United do have some Wembley experience already in the bank this season, after beating Newcastle in February's EFL Cup final, but Roberto De Zerbi's Brighton are in strong recent form.
Here's all the key information on the match, including kickoff time, live streaming and TV channels, lineups, and betting odds.

Brighton vs Man United prediction betting odds
This tie is very difficult to call, with United under pressure to react from their defeat in Sevilla, and Brighton pushing to reach a first FA Cup final since 1983.
De Zerbi's side continue to impress this season, and they are justifiably slight favourites to come out on top at Wembley, with United still licking their wounds over a European exit.
