Two clubs chasing FA Cup glory will do battle today in a cup match between Yeovil Town and Manchester United. The third-round clash scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET will be held at Huish Park in Yeovil and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on Fox Sports 1.
What They're Saying
Yeovil Town manager Gary Johnson (via Western Daily Press): "Being starstruck by Manchester United is a concern and you can't stop human nature. This is a one-off game, which some of the lads aren't going to have again. I'm sure they will think: 'Can I get Wayne Rooney's boots?' You know that's going to happen, but we need to make sure we get into game mode. I don't mind it after the final whistle, but I will have the raging hump if my players swap shirts before then."
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal (via the club's official website): "I had the same experience against MK Dons, who are also in League One. You never know in a cup match. You have to win because you're out if you lose. We have to beat Yeovil, but every team in England wants to beat Manchester United, so it will be difficult."
