When and where will the game take place?

Match Preview
Manchester United
United have enjoyed a strong cup campaign as they look to end their five-year trophy drought.
They produced a strong showing in the first leg, with Marcus Rashford and Wout Weghorst getting on the scoresheet in the first half before Bruno Fernandes wrapped up the win late in the game.
All three players featured in United’s 3-1 win over Reading in the FA Cup last Saturday and could be rested on Wednesday.
Christian Eriksen picked up an injury at the weekend, joining Diogo Dalot, Anthony Martial and Donny van de Beek on the injury list, while Jadon Sancho continues to work his way back to action.
Nottingham Forest
Forest showed flashes of brilliance in the first leg and even got on the scoresheet with the score at 1-0 before VAR ruled out their goal.
However, they struggled to impose themselves in the game and will be looking to produce a much better performance at Old Trafford this week.
Morgan Gibbs-White was Forest’s best player in the reverse fixture but picked up an injury in the second half and will miss Wednesday’s game as a result.
The Englishman joins a fairly lengthy injury list for the visitors that already includes Dean Henderson, Taiwo Awoniyi, Cheikhou Kouyate, Moussa Niakhate, Omar Richards and Giulian Biancone.
Players to watch – Fred vs Scarpa
After fielding a strong XI against Reading last time out, Erik ten Hag should rotate his team this week with the likes of Fred coming in.
The Brazilian has been largely used as a squad player this season but has done so very well. He came off the bench to score in FA Cup on Saturday and could be rewarded with a start this week.
Gustavo Scarpa has quickly settled into life at Nottingham Forest. He was lively in the reverse fixture last time out and will be looking to replicate that on Wednesday.
Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest Predicted XI
