Manchester United have a chance to save this season by winning the cup, but it will not be easy.
However, in this round he has a theoretically accessible move to a Championship team.
The match will start on Thursday evening at 9:45 pm at Pride Park.
Derby
◾️The form of the moment is modest because in the last 5 games it has 2 draws, 2 defeats and one victory.
◾️In the previous round, he struggled with Northampton because in the first match he was 0-0 away, managing to qualify later on his own field with a score of 4-2.
◾️I expect him to play with the best team because he doesn’t have much to fight for in the championship.
Manchester United
◾️I think the Red Devils have high hopes for this trophy and that’s why I think the coach will use the best first 11 available.
◾️The form of the moment is good because in the last 5 games he has 3 wins and 2 draws.
◾️Even in the previous round of the cup he used the best first 11 with a League One team, Tranmere, which he defeated 6-0 away.

Football Prediction of the Day Derby vs Manchester United
I think both coaches will use the best first 11 and this certainly benefits Manchester United, being the most valuable team.
And the form of momentum is on the side of the Premier League team, the only advantage that Derby has is that it plays on its own field.
United has been very interested in the cup this season, so I think he will try to win in this round, especially since the championship situation is quite complicated and it is not known if he will take a place in the Champions League and a trophy.
