And then there were eight

Manchester United made it through to the last quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Monday night, beating Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge thanks to two first half headed goals from Ander Herrera and Paul Pogba.

In the next round, United will play yet another away tie, as they travel to Molineux to face Wolverhampton Wanderers. Their local rivals Manchester City, meanwhile, will travel to Swansea, all but guaranteeing them a place in the final four.

Watford will welcome Crystal Palace to Vicarage Road for a repeat of the 2016 semi-final, which Palace won. And in the final match of the draw, Palace’s two biggest rivals will meet as Millwall welcome Brighton and Hove Albion to The Den.

This draw could throw up two derbies at Wembley in the semis.

The quarter-finals will take place on the weekend of the 16th March.
