So, in the upcoming Manchester United-Crawley Town match we've got a non-league team heading to Old Trafford. It's a recipe for one of two things: A giant killing or complete, pitiless slaughter. Even though United look set to play a reserve side and Crawley was by some distance the most expensive non-league side ever put together, there's a major gulf in class between the squads, so the smart money goes on 'slaughter.' But this is football. Anything can happen, and just because Crawley have a 1/500 chance of coming through this tie unscathed doesn't mean United blowing them out of the water is an inevitiability.
