Football review Coventry vs Man Utd: 'Red Devils' advance straight to the final

Man City are waiting for Man Utd in the FA Cup final. Erik ten Hag's team have a great chance to repeat last season's Manchester derby final when they only have to face Coventry in the semi-finals.

Coventry vs Man Utd Prediction

Man Utd are FA Cup runners-up, and they are determined to change their position. That determination is even greater because the FA Cup is the only chance for the Reds of Manchester to win a trophy this season.

Man Utd booked their place in the semi-finals in spectacular fashion. They beat Liverpool 4-3 in the quarter-finals after 120 minutes, thanks to goals from Scott McTominay, Antony, Marcus Rashford and Amad Diallo.

Man Utd have many chances to continue despite not being in good form.

Man Utd fans want Erik ten Hag and his team to show more fighting spirit like in the match against Liverpool. That can be considered the problem of the "Red Devils" this season. The players lack determination and do not try their best when facing difficult situations. Former Man Utd players often criticize the attitude of their juniors.

Another big problem is that Man Utd players are often injured. Last season's most important factors such as Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez spent more time in the medical room than on the pitch.

Man Utd are at the top of the list of teams with injuries, with around 30 players out. Before the match with Coventry, coach Erik ten Hag received bad news again when Sofyan Amrabat, Willy Kambwala and Mason Mount were injured. The Dutch strategist only has Harry Maguire as the only healthy central defender. Casemiro will most likely be pulled back to play central defender.

Despite the big changes in the squad, Man Utd is still rated higher than Coventry. The English First Division team is difficult to compare in terms of class and quality of personnel. This is a good opportunity for Man Utd to deploy their playing style. Stars like Bruno Fernandes, Rasmus Hojlund, Marcus Rashford or Alejandro Garnacho have enough intelligence and skill to find their way into Coventry's goal.

Coventry’s semi-final appearance is a big surprise. In fact, they did not face many strong opponents in their journey before meeting Wolverhampton in the previous round. Coach Mark Robins and his team came from behind to beat the Premier League representatives in the last minutes to book their place in the semi-finals.

However, their journey will be difficult when facing Man Utd. Coventry will probably still play defensive counter-attacking but their defenders will have difficulty stopping the attacking stars of the away team.

Coventry vs Man Utd form

Coventry's form has not been good recently. They have won 2 and lost 3 of their last 5 games. In their last 5 home games, they have won 3 and lost 2.

Man Utd are also not in good form. After the win over Liverpool in the FA Cup, Man Utd have only drawn and lost. In the last 4 away matches, Erik ten Hag and his team have not known victory.
