Big difference here.

Wigan Athletic is in the League One after being relegated last season from the Championship. This season has not been better for the team, as they are pretty far from the playoff places (13 points), which is their main target.

Liverpool loanee James Balagizi ended his time at Wigan in the build-up to this cup tie. Tom Pearce and Jason Kerr are out with the Latics sweating over the fitness of Stephen Humphrys and Scott Smith.

On the other hand, although Manchester United has been far from being perfect, they still have a squad with a lot of quality and options to play this competition against a League One side. Ten Hag may also feel he and his team have a point to prove in the FA Cup after reaching the final in his first season, only to lose out against Manchester City, who added this trophy to win the treble.

Ten Hag would also want a response from his side, who lost out to Nottingham Forest, to end 2023 in a disappointing manner. The Dutch manager would have certainly welcomed the Premier League break but will look for a good performance from his players to progress in the FA Cup.

United currently sit fourth in the table, nine points off fourth-placed Arsenal and it's been a nearly soul-crushing first-half of the season for them. But with Sir Jim Ratcliffe arriving as a minority shareholder and taking control of football operations at the club, a sense of optimism has enveloped Old Trafford.

With the Dutchman under much pressure, it would probably be expected not to expect a great deal of rotation as one would have hoped when this tie was drawn. The FA Cup is the only shot at silverware that United have this season, so will be hoping to hit the ground running in style, albeit against a former winner of the FA Cup.

Several important players are expected to be in the lineup, such as Diogo Dalot, Varane, Shaw, Bruno Fernandes, Rashford, Diallo and Hojlund.

Despite their struggles this term, the Red Devils surely have enough firepower to see off their League One opponents on Monday. With their injury situation set to become a whole lot better and Erik ten Hag being notoriously averse to squad rotation, United are expected to go in with heavy artillery.

这里有很大的不同。

维冈竞技在上赛季从英冠降级后进入了英甲联赛。这个赛季对球队来说并没有好转，因为他们离季后赛席位(13分)很远，这是他们的主要目标。

利物浦租借球员詹姆斯·巴拉吉吉结束了他在维冈的生涯，为这场杯赛做准备。汤姆·皮尔斯和杰森·科尔缺阵，罗马人也在为斯蒂芬·汉弗莱斯和斯科特·史密斯的伤情担心。

另一方面，尽管曼联还远远不够完美，但他们仍然拥有一支实力强大的球队，可以在这场比赛中对阵一支英甲球队。在他执教的第一个赛季就打进了足总杯决赛，但在与曼城的比赛中失利后，他可能也觉得自己和他的球队需要在足总杯上证明自己。曼城在夺得足总杯三冠王的同时又赢得了这座奖杯。

10女巫也希望他的球队能以令人失望的方式结束2023年，他们输给了诺丁汉森林。荷兰教练当然会欢迎英超联赛的休息，但他会期待他的球员在足总杯中有好的表现。

曼联目前在积分榜上排名第四，与排名第四的阿森纳相差9分，对他们来说，这是一个几乎令人心碎的上半赛季。但随着吉姆•拉特克利夫爵士(Sir Jim Ratcliffe)以小股东身份加盟曼联，并接管俱乐部的足球运营，一种乐观情绪笼罩着老特拉福德。

由于荷兰人承受着巨大的压力，人们可能不会像平局时所希望的那样期待大量的轮换。足总杯是曼联本赛季唯一的夺冠机会，所以曼联希望能以一种时尚的方式开始比赛，尽管对手是足总杯的前冠军。

几名重要球员预计将出现在阵容中，如迪奥戈·达洛特、瓦拉内、肖、布鲁诺·费尔南德斯、拉什福德、迪亚洛和霍伊隆德。

尽管本赛季他们处境艰难，但红魔肯定有足够的火力在周一击败他们的英甲对手。由于他们的伤病状况将会好转很多，而埃里克-哈格也非常反对阵容轮换，曼联将会投入重兵。
