Man Utd: Manchester United will be travelling to London to face Arsenal in the third round of the FA Cup on Sunday. Ahead of his first-ever FA Cup tie, head coach Ruben Amorim acknowledged the history of the tournament and claimed the side needs to win to improve its image.

"I see what everybody sees. It is a really old competition with a lot of history. We won some cups and we want to continue. At this stage, we already have a really strong match we want to win and we want to improve the image and performance,” said Amorim in a press conference.

Manchester United are the defending champions in the country’s most prestigious cup competition and Arsenal will be hoping to replicate their 2-0 win over the same opponents in December.

Despite occupying the 13th position in the Premier League table, Ruben Amorim will be hoping to see the same fire from his side that they displayed in their previous league game against Liverpool. Since Amorim’s arrival to England in November, the Red Devils have won only two of nine league games but have played well against big teams which included the 2-2 draw against Liverpool and 2-1 win over Manchester City in December.

Amorim went on to state he is not prioritizing the league over the cup and is "living day-by-day".

"At this moment I am living day-by-day. What I am thinking is we have one week without any game, we had a day off and we could work with the team a bit.

Amorim went on to state he is not prioritizing the league over the cup and is "living day-by-day".
