Premier League matches are taking place in the mid-week as the FA Cup takes the spotlight during the weekend.
The games on Tuesday night include Tottenham Hotspur vs Newcastle United, Chelsea vs Leeds United and Everton vs Bournemouth.
But, the one game that will bring the most attention is West Ham United vs Manchester United as it’s an important game for a certain someone.
The United Strand has been the biggest hype man for the clash considering that he’s one win away from completing a challenge.
Frank Ilett created his own challenge by not cutting his hair until Man United win five games in a row, and has not been able to book an appointment at the barbers for 493 days.
In some ways, it’s not a surprise considering how The Red Devils struggled last season, finishing 15th in the Premier League.
Remarkably, ever since Michael Carrick became head coach of United they have won all of their matches, picking up victories against Manchester City, Arsenal, Fulham and Tottenham.
A triumph at the London Stadium may just create one of the most viral moments of 2026 as Ilett will finally get a haircut in what has been a very long wait.
