BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson is tipping West Ham to knock out United of the FA Cup.
United host the Hammers on Sunday, and could knock the London team out with a straight win at Old Trafford.
Mark Lawrenson is however predicting a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, that will force a replay at West Ham, where he predicts that the Hammers would finally beat United.
He wrote in his column on BBC:
This is going to be a tough one for Manchester United because West Ham are on a roll at the moment.
The Hammers do not let teams bully them away from home and they are great at coming from behind in games. They can take the tie back to Upton Park - and I fancy them to win it there.
Lawrenson's final prediction is a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford. (West Ham to win the replay).
United can't afford another unpleasant result after losing their last two games. The 2-0 defeat by Liverpool on Thursday means United have a mountain to climb in second leg, and the FA Cup remains the team's most viable chance of winning a silverware this season.
