Manchester United vs Cardiff City: TV channel, live stream, squad news & preview The Red Devils are set to end their disappointing season with nothing to play for as Solskjaer prepares reshuffle his squad Manchester United will play host to Cardiff in their final Premier League game of the season, heading into the last day of the campaign marooned on 66 points and having waved goodbye to playing in the Champions League next term. It has been a disappointing campaign under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, whose reign at Old Trafford started strongly with six straight league wins. Man Utd's form has dwindled in the closing stages of the season, however, crashing out of Europe to Barcelona and abandoning their hopes of Champions League football following a stale 1-1 draw against Huddersfield in their penultimate league game. United are the only top six side not competing for a trophy this season, with City on course to win the Premier League and having won the Carabao Cup, while Tottenham and Liverpool are facing off in the Champions League final and Arsenal and Chelsea as Europa League finalists. A spot in next season's Europa League is confirmed, however, and Solskjaer will be expected to do a major squad rehaul this summer.

Match Preview Man Utd have no chance of playing in the Champions League season, blowing their last hopes last week with a disappointing 1-1 draw against Huddersfield. A spot in the Europa League has been confirmed, though an entry in the group stage will be confirmed with a fifth-placed finish. Should Solskjaer's men finish in sixth – which is awarded a Europa League place because Manchester City won the Carabao Cup but will be in the Champions League – their position of entry to Europe will depend on who wins the FA Cup. And so, with nothing left to play for save for their own supporters, United should finish their league season with a victory over Cardiff to ensure that they start their summer on the right foot. United are expected to undergo major squad surgery during the transfer window, with Ander Herrera the first to have confirmed his departure after five years at Old Trafford. "There is red in my heart, I knew it from the first time I played here and in the moment that I started to wear it," the Spaniard said in a farewell video released by the club. "A club with thousands of fans that respect and remember all the players who give everything. "I felt special when I heard my name chanted. I felt proud when the fans decided I was part of this incredible history." The final game against the Welsh side is set to be Herrera's final appearance in the United shirt, while the fates of Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez are also up in the air following inconsistent and lukewarm seasons. Antonio Valencia and Juan Mata are also expected to be shown the door this summer. Though Solskjaer was announced as the club's permanent manager after taking over from Jose Mourinho on an interim basis in December, former Tottenham coach Tim Sherwood believes that that hasn't completely ruled out the possibility of Mauricio Pochettino taking the reigns at the north London club. Article continues below “Manchester United decided to go down the Solskjaer route but that’s not a guarantee Pochettino won’t be in their dugout in the near future," he told Bwin . “If United decide they’ve made a mistake, Tottenham are back to square one sweating over Pochettino’s future. “That’s the stranglehold that a Manchester United can have on you as one of the biggest clubs in the world."<doc-sep>Another season is (almost) in the books, and what a let down 2018/19 has been. Manchester United have been joyless and almost unwatchable, briefly fun again, and then bitterly disappointing. With no chance of finishing in the top 4 of the Premier League, United are likely to start and end Sunday in 6th place. Already relegated Cardiff City are the Reds’ final opponents. Ordinarily, a Championship team with nothing to play for should be easy fodder for a United team hoping to give their home fans something to cheer about, but this United team keeps finding new ways to disappoint. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hinted that a few youngsters are likely to be involved on Sunday. James Garner, Mason Greenwood, Tahith Chong, and Angel Gomes are all likely candidates to either start or come off the bench. Antonio Valencia will likely be on the bench for the first time in ages, and get a chance to come on for a farewell appearance at Old Trafford. Ander Herrera has not been pictured with the squad, but it would be a shame if he did not get a fitting send off as well.

In this scenario Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s side will finish fifth and so enter the Europa League group phase in September rather than in a preliminary round, maybe as early as late July. This all illustrates how far United have fallen and what a long way back it is for the club.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will end his first season as Manchester United manager against former club Cardiff City as his 2018-19 campaign draws to a close at Old Trafford on Sunday. The Red Devils are on a miserable run of five matches without a win, and Solskjaer needs to beat his old employers if he’s to coax any more faith from the United support ahead of the summer. How to Watch Manchester United-Cardiff City When: Sunday, May 12 Where: Old Trafford, Manchester, England Time: 10 a.m. ET TV: USA Live Stream: fuboTV (watch for free) Fifth place is the highest United can hope to finish at the end of an ultimately disappointing Premier League campaign, which has lost much of the lustre that came following Solskjaer’s arrival. Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Huddersfield Town was the latest disappointment for a team who looked almost nailed on for fourth or higher in March. Cardiff, meanwhile, would like nothing more than to land one final blow on an English titan before dropping back down to the Championship. Neil Warnock’s men are already certain to be relegated, and they’re looking to do better than the 2-0 defeat they suffered at Old Trafford in January 2014, their only other trip to the ground. The Bluebirds have lost their last three games in a row but have won a top-flight game more recently than Sunday’s opponents (a 2-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion on April 16). Romelu Lukaku and Jesse Lingard are unlikely to feature for Liverpool following injuries, while Alexis Sanchez is also a doubt after he came off injured in the draw against Huddersfield. Champions League qualification is out of the question for United, but the manager will assess his players in their final challenge of the campaign to see who’s committed to the cause. United are one point behind Arsenal ahead of the final week of the season and need the Gunners to drop points in their visit to Burnley on Sunday if they’re to have a hope of clinching fifth and guarantee Europa League group stage play next year.
