Man United must replay their fourth round tie at Old Trafford after being held to an embarrassing 0-0 draw by the League Two side 11 days ago.
Manager Van Gaal knows all the pressure is on his Red Devils and admitted there is a desire to see them fall flat and follow Chelsea and Manchester City in going out in a major upset at this last-32 stage.
“What I have already said is that everything is against you at Manchester United and everything is in favour of the underdog,” said Van Gaal ahead of Tuesday’s tie.
“People shall not do it consciously but sub-consciously. So that’s our warning for Tuesday.
“But in spite of all the criticism we’ve had, we’re still in the FA Cup and a lot of teams are not.
“So I’m still happy that we can play this match, but we have to win because they are coming with two rows of four and a goalkeeper and dropping in a striker.
“We have to score the first goal, because that’s the most important goal, so it’s not such an easy game.”
