The FA Cup quarter-final draw has been made and Manchester City will face Newcastle United at home in one of the matches. Meanwhile, Manchester United could potentially play Liverpool, who are the current holders of the FA Cup.
To progress to the quarter-finals, Manchester United must first beat Nottingham Forest in their fifth-round tie. Similarly, Liverpool needs to overcome Southampton in theirs. The other two teams that will be playing in the quarter-finals are Chelsea and Leeds, who will meet on Wednesday.
It's worth noting that Manchester City has a strong history in the FA Cup, having won it five times before. Newcastle United, on the other hand, have only reached the quarter-finals once before, back in 1976.
Manchester United and Liverpool have a storied rivalry, with both teams having played each other numerous times throughout their history. The last time they met was in the Premier League in October 2018, where Manchester United won 3-1 at Anfield.
Overall, the FA Cup quarter-finals promise to be an exciting and competitive round of matches, with some of the biggest teams in English football facing off against each other.
