How to watch Manchester United vs Brighton - UK and USA FA Cup TV and live stream details

Manchester United return to Wembley Stadium this weekend for the first time since lifting the Carabao Cup final in late February.

Newcastle United were the opposition then, but now fellow Premier League rivals Brighton and Hove Albion will be out to prevent Erik ten Hag's team from reaching another domestic cup final during the Dutchman's debut season as manager. For United, there is also the added element of responding after exiting the Europa League during midweek at the hands of Sevilla.

Brighton were not in action during midweek and have instead had an entire week to prepare for their second FA Cup semi-final in the past five seasons. Manchester City knocked them out the last time they reached the final four. United will hope to replicate their neighbours' result and earn a spot in the showpiece. Here's how you can follow the action.
