Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are among the seven Premier League clubs who will learn their FA Cup quarter-final opponents at this evening’s draw. The fifth-round of the competition is not yet complete, though, with West Ham and Brentford still due to face off at the London Stadium this evening, capping what has been a thrilling weekend of action including two huge upsets.
Fulham and Sunderland saw themselves unceremoniously knocked out of the running, having been on the losing end of 1-0 defeats by Southampton and Port Vale, respectively. The latter club, who sit rock bottom in League One, are now the lowest-ranked team left in the competition. Arsenal, conversely, are the highest, and they eased past Mansfield to confirm their progression on Sunday. Chelsea had a rather more stressful outing, requiring extra time to get by Championship side Wrexham.
Liverpool routed Wolves at Molineux thanks to an impressive performance from Andy Robertson, while Manchester City downed Newcastle at St James’ Park to book their spot in the quarter-finals - but who will they face when they get there?
