Manchester United is playing against Swansea City in the FA Cup third round on Sunday and this comes after matches from Chelsea and Liverpool and a full day on Saturday and after this match the draw will be released for the FA Cup and this match comes from Old Trafford starting up at 11:30 am ET and streaming on the Fox Soccer 2Go website and it is one of the top matchups of round three.
Manchester United comes in playing better than they were at the beginning of the PRemier League season and they are here against Swansea City after playing some tough matches over the holiday schedule and they are coming in after a tough loss at Old Trafford against the Spurs and before that the team won against Norwich City, Hull City and West Ham United as well as Stoke City and Aston Villa and that is one reason why they have been moving up the table, but they will need to continue playing at a very high level to get into the top part of the four teams with Arsenal and Chelsea.
The club has a tough schedule coming up with Sunderland after Swansea City and they play against them again in the Premier League and their next match is for the Capital One Cup and that should be a good test for the team as well. Down the line the club had a tough match against Arsenal at the Emirates and they also have the Champions League coming up as well. Arsenal comes in at the top of the PRemier League table over Manchester City and Chelsea and Liverpool comes in at fourth place ahead of Everton and Tottenham, while Man U is in seventh right now and they have continued to move up the table and now they are above Newcastle and Southampton, while Swansea City is in 13th position on the table and they are above West brom and right behind Stoke City.

David Moyes will be without Ashley Young after he was injured in the Premier League matchup while trying to score a goal against Tottenham and now the club will have to find a way without him and here is more from Reuters.com on the injury. David Moyes has extra cause to rue the controversial challenge on Ashley Young by Tottenham Hotspur keeper Hugo Lloris after ruling the winger out of his side's FA Cup clash against Swansea City on Sunday with a shoulder injury.
Young was sent tumbling as United pushed for an equalizer in Wednesday's 2-1 home Premier League defeat by Spurs - a rash challenge that manager Moyes and his opposite number Tim Sherwood both thought should have resulted in a penalty.
Moyes must now cope without the England international, who injured his shoulder when falling awkwardly.
"We've got a few injuries and one is (from) the challenge the keeper made on Ashley Young," Moyes told a news conference.
"It's a shoulder injury and we're not sure exactly how long he's going to be out yet.
"We've got some other injuries as well that we'll just need to look at and see how they are over the next few days."
United's third round tie with Swansea at Old Trafford is followed 48 hours later by a League Cup semi-final, first leg away to Sunderland.
"It's the same for both clubs (United and Sunderland) so there can't be many complaints but I don't think it's right to be asking footballers to play on Sunday and then Tuesday," Moyes said, with Sunderland hosting Carlisle United in the FA Cup.
"They did it over Christmas and I totally understand that and the reasons why. But it's a bit harder to accept at such short notice here," he added.
Despite their hectic fixture list and the fact that United face a battle to climb into the top four in the league, Moyes said the FA Cup remained a priority, especially with the club having not won the competition since 2004.
"The Cup is important to me, it always has been," Moyes said. "If you're a club like United you want to be involved in all the trophy-winning opportunities, and to not win the FA Cup for 10 years is something that's a bit of a surprise." (Reuters)
