The Reds have won the famous trophy 12 times – a record bettered only by Arsenal, who have one more triumph to their name. We also hold the joint-record of most appearances in the final with the Gunners having reached the showpiece on 20 occasions, including twice in the last three seasons.
The latest road to Wembley begins this afternoon (Saturday) when Championship side Reading visit Old Trafford in the third round, as they did in 2017 when the Reds ran out comfortable 4-0 winners.
After a long barren spell without lifting the FA Cup, United won the competition in 2016 and came close to replicating that triumph last term, only to suffer a narrow defeat against Chelsea in the final.
