With a win catapulting one team to the quarterfinals, Manchester United and Norwich City will square off in the fourth round of the 2013-2014 Capital One Cup. Only 16 clubs remain in the tournament that includes the best teams from England and Wales and the remaining teams should provide fans with exciting match-ups right through the final. Winners of four Capital One Cup's -- or Football League Cup's -- Manchester United hopes to follow up their third round victory over Liverpool with a strong win over Barclays Premier League affiliate Norwich City. City has earned two Football League trophies since the tournament began in 1954 but if they're to have any hope of playing for another title, the Canaries will need to get by a Man U team riding a wave of confidence.
Recently taking down Stoke City in come-from-behind fashion at Old Trafford, the Red Devils earned their fourth Premier League victory this season. One player expected to be a part of the future for Man U is Adnan Januzaj, an 18-year-old winger from Brussels, Belgium who has burst onto the scene in his first ride with the Premier League giants. Expected to start in the Capital One Round of 16 showdown against Norwich City, United head coach David Moyes is confident in the teenager's ability to play above his age since he is a mature player capable of dealing with the pressures of playing at Old Trafford.
"If ever there was a boy who can take it, it will be him," Moyes said of Januzaj, who has recorded 2 goals in 5 appearances this season. "You just hope the referees give him the correct protection, and I'm sure they will, but he won't be moaning about it -- he's a great lad and he'll bounce up and get on with it. You can kick him as hard as you like and it won't affect him."
While Manchester United remains in the Top 8 of the Premier League, Norwich City is focused on removing themselves from the bottom three in the standings. Earning just two victories in nine matches, City has been a disappointment thus far. A win over Manchester United in the Capital One Cup however could help the struggling team build confidence once they return to the BPL slate.
