FA Cup quarter-final draw – LIVE!

The draw for the FA Cup quarter-finals will be made later today. Manchester City booked their spot in the final eight and will certainly fancy their chances about ending what has been an off season with a trophy, having overcome Plymouth in the fifth round. It remains to be seen if rivals Manchester United will join them, with the Red Devils playing Fulham on Sunday.

Crystal Palace, meanwhile, beat South London rivals Millwall on Saturday afternoon in a game marred by the dreadful tackle on striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, who has thankfully provided a positive update after going to hospital following a challenge from Lions goalkeeper Liam Roberts.

Aston Villa can surely be considered potential winners too, while Championship outfit Preston are enjoying their FA Cup run this season. Follow the draw LIVE with Standard Sport’s dedicated blog for the FA Cup quarter-final draw!
