Manchester City Draw Liverpool In Blockbuster FA Cup Quarter-Final Fixture

Manchester City will face Liverpool in a headline FA Cup quarter-final clash following Monday’s draw for the last eight of the competition.

The tie sets up another major encounter between the Premier League rivals, while Arsenal will travel to Southampton and Chelsea host Port Vale.

City’s showdown with Liverpool is widely regarded as the standout fixture of the quarter-final round.

The side managed by Pep Guardiola have already defeated Liverpool twice this season, winning 3-0 in Manchester in November and securing a 2-1 victory at Anfield in February.

It will be the clubs’ first FA Cup meeting since Liverpool defeated City 3-2 in the semi-finals in 2022.

Liverpool, who beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-1 in the fifth round, have lifted the FA Cup eight times, most recently in 2022.

Seven-time winners City advanced to the quarter-finals with a 3-1 victory over Newcastle United and last won the trophy in 2023.

Premier League leaders Arsenal booked their place in the last eight after defeating Mansfield Town 2-1.

The side managed by Mikel Arteta will now travel to Championship promotion hopefuls Southampton.

Southampton reached the quarter-finals after securing a surprise 1-0 win against Fulham in the fifth round.

Meanwhile, Chelsea were handed a home tie against League One side Port Vale.

Port Vale progressed to the quarter-finals after producing a shock 1-0 victory over Sunderland.

The final quarter-final match will see the winner of the clash between West Ham United and Brentford host Leeds United.
