MANCHESTER UNITED'S FA Cup clash with Wigan will be broadcast on BBC One.
That means the Red Devils will have featured on TV in 86 out of 87 cup clashes, dating back to 2005.
The only match not to be televised was an FA Cup third round clash against Derby in January 2018, which United won 2-0.
Prior to that every single one of United's FA Cup and League Cup matches were aired, dating back to a 0-0 draw with Exexter in 2005.
That means every stage of last year's Carabao Cup success was shown live on air.
Erik ten Hag also led his side to the FA Cup final where they lost to rivals Manchester City.

The Dutchman will be confident he can overcome League One side Wigan, who won the FA Cup in 2023.
However his side have not fared very well in cup competitions this season having been beaten 3-0 in the Carabao Cup by Newcastle.
United are also on the brink of Champions League elimination and need to beat Bayern Munich to have hope of qualifying from their group.
The Red Devils' meeting with Wigan will be the last match of the third round weekend to be broadcast.
