FA Cup Quarter-Finals Set: City Face Liverpool, Chelsea Get Port Vale, Arsenal Avoid Another Scare

The FA Cup quarter-finals have been drawn, and the fixtures promise to deliver the kind of drama that makes this competition worth watching.

Manchester City will take on Liverpool after an impressive comeback victory over Newcastle saw them win 3-1. Arne Slot's Liverpool side come into the tie on the back of a commanding 3-1 win against Wolves on Friday evening, with Andy Robertson and the standout Rio Ngumoha among the goalscorers.

Chelsea's path to the semis takes them to Stamford Bridge to host Port Vale, a reward for the League One side's impressive scalp of Sunderland. Ben Waine grabbed the decisive goal for Vale, currently bottom of the division, setting up their trip to west London against a Chelsea outfit that needed extra time to overcome Wrexham in the previous round.

Arsenal's quarter-final opponent will be Southampton, after the Saints dispatched a limp Fulham side. The Gunners themselves saw off Mansfield Town in the fifth round, with Eberechi Eze netting the winner on Saturday.

Leeds United have earned an away fixture against either West Ham or Brentford, the latter pair still to settle their tie on Monday evening. Sean Longstaff's stunning strike in Leeds' victory over Norwich has certainly caught the eye, vindication perhaps of Martin Keown's earlier assertion that the midfielder possesses superior technique to Declan Rice.
