Boro Draw Chelsea In FA Cup QF; Saints To Host Man City  (Sky Sports)

FA CupMiddlesbrough will host Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter-finals, while Southampton will entertain Manchester City and Liverpool will travel to face Nottingham Forest or Huddersfield.

Crystal Palace will play Everton or Boreham Wood in the other tie, as Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City all avoided each other.

Middlesbrough will welcome Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea to the Riverside having knocked out Premier League giants Manchester United and Tottenham in successive rounds.

Southampton against Manchester City has the potential to be the only all-Premier League tie, though Boreham Wood would need to pull off an enormous shock and win at Everton in Thursday's fifth-round tie for that to be the case.

Should Everton win, they will travel to face Patrick Vieira's Palace at Selhurst Park in the quarters, while Jurgen Klopp's recently-crowned Carabao Cup champions Liverpool will face a Championship side in either Nottingham Forest or Huddersfield - with the former having already knocked out the two most recent FA Cup winner in Leicester City and Arsenal.

Forest face Huddersfield in their fifth-round tie on Monday.
