Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Reds are currently fifth in the table and can secure a top-four finish by winning both of the remaining top-flight fixtures, against West Ham United and Leicester City.
A victory over the Hammers in midweek would lift United up to fourth and crucially build a three-point advantage over the Foxes, ahead of Sunday’s all-important trip to the King Power Stadium.
While speaking to us at Wembley on Sunday, Matic accepted the loss to his former club was hard to take, but his focus quickly switched to Wednesday’s significant match in the Premier League.
“I'm already three years at United so for me every game is special when I play and especially at Wembley, so it doesn't matter who it's against,”
he said.
