Man United vs Nottingham Forest TV channel, live stream and how to follow FA Youth Cup final

Nottingham Forest Under-18s are looking to make club history when they take on Manchester United in the FA Youth Cup final tonight.

The Young Reds have already etched their names into the club's history books having reached the Youth Cup final for the first time in their history, but Warren Joyce's side will hope to go one step further when they head to Old Trafford. Goals from Dale Taylor and Etlef Esapa-Osong provided Forest with a late, late 3-1 victory over Chelsea in the semi-finals, a game which saw the Reds score all three of their goals in the final four minutes of the second half.

Forest's Under-18s are flying high in all competitions with Joyce's side achieving a fourth-place finish in their debut Under-18 Premier League campaign. They beat Blackburn Rovers 3-2 in the play-offs and will take on Man United again on May 14 at Carrington.
