Southampton will match-up with Manchester United in the FA Cup-4th Round football match on Saturday 29th January 2011. Southampton vs Manchester United live match will kick-off at 17:15 GMT at St. Mary’s Stadium – Southampton, Hampshire. England FA Cup

Southampton is presently in a huge and impressive form over the last few weeks with a fantastic triumph. On 8th Jan, Saints win 2-0 on Blackpool in the third round of the FA Cup and three days later, got an marvelous 6-0 away win at Oldham Athletic, in the process securing a fifth straight victory.

Currently, Southampton is taking the 4th spot in the chart in League One, which puts them in contention for promotion to the Championship. They have played 14 English League one matches this season on St Mary’s Stadium. On home ground, Southampton has W7, D4 and L3 matches and this ranked Saints 8th in home team performance in the English League One.

Manchester United opened their FA Cup campaign with a 1-0 win over Liverpool and their reward is a drawn with former Premier League rival Southampton, who collected a Premier League scalp in the last round with a 2-0 home win over United’s at Bloomfield Road.

Manchester United has played eleven English Premier League matches this season away from home. On away ground, United has W3, D8 and L0 matches and this ranked the Red Devils 3rd in away team performance in the English Premier League.

United’s have eleven FA Cup titles on their name and the last FA Cup success came in 2004. United is the competition’s most successful club, It goes without saying that winning a record 19th league title is the focus, but I’d love nothing more than for United to bring the FA Cup home once again this time.

Manchester United and Southampton are entering with huge expectations.

Possible starting XI:

Manchester United: Lindegaard, Fabio, Evans, Smalling, O’Shea, Obertan, Anderson, Gibson, Bebe, Owen, Chicharito

Southampton:Davis, Dickson, Fonte, Jaidi, Richardson, Lallana, Hammond, Chaplow, Oxlade Chamberlain, Do Pardo, Lambert
