Nottingham Forest needed extra time to defeat Blackpool in a third-round replay before losing to Bristol City in a fourth-round rematch, and they had ridden their luck to reach the FA Cup’s last 16, where Man United would provide their toughest test yet.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s team tested Andre Onana on several occasions at the City Ground on Wednesday evening, but the Cameroonian shot-stopper cut an impenetrable figure between the sticks, unlike Matt Turner, as Casemiro’s deft header from a Bruno Fernandes free kick propelled the Red Devils into the quarterfinals.

Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool’s academy players shone in the dying embers of their EFL Cup final victory over Chelsea before taking the Anfield spotlight when Championship advancement hopefuls Southampton visited in midweek.
Liverpool, forced to field a selection of academy proteges due to a double-figure absentee list, had their fair share of defending to do against the Saints, but Lewis Koumas’ deflected strike and a dream double for Jayden Danns ahead of the Kop sent the Reds via to the quarter-finals, where Forest’s conquerors Manchester United await.

Liverpool’s injury crisis worsens by the week, but the club has almost always found a way to triumph in the face of adversity, and their young stars have certainly struck fear into opponents’ hearts.
As a result, Klopp’s side may finally be able to break the City Ground curse, as they should not keep Santo’s team out but can capitalise on their hosts’ ongoing defensive flaws with the help of some returning senior players.
Nottingham Forest 1-3 Liverpool, predicted by us.
