Preston North End teenager Josh Brownhill believes that the Lilywhites have a "really good chance" of beating Manchester United in the FA Cup fifth round.

Josh Brownhill has said that there is a "really good chance" of Preston North End upsetting Manchester United in this evening's final game of the FA Cup last 16.

League One side Preston can take heart from the fact that both Yeovil Town and Cambridge United ran Louis van Gaal's side close in the previous two rounds.

Speaking to Football League World, former United youth product Brownhill said: "Yeah I think there's a good chance that we'll be able to beat United.

"I think the way they have played in the last couple of rounds against Yeovil and Cambridge gives us hope. If we're on our game, we've got a really good chance of beating them."

Brownhill, 19, has scored twice in 27 appearances for the Lilywhites this season.
