Manchester United will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the pick of the FA Cup quarter-final ties with a place at Wembley up for grabs for the victor.

There was a repeat of last season’s final at Stamford Bridge in the final match of the last 16 on Monday night, though this time it was Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side who came out on top with a 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge.

Solskjaer will now take on Premier League surprise package Wolves, who have already taken points off several top-six sides this season.

Championship outfit Millwall, meanwhile, are the lowest-ranked team left in the tournament, having beaten AFC Wimbledon to reach the quarter-finals for the second time in three years, and will host Brighton.

Premier League champions Manchester City will be in action against Championship outfit Swansea, while Crystal Palace travel to Watford.

The quarter-finals for the FA Cup will take place from 15-18 March, with the clubs who emerge victorious sharing £720,000 in prize money.

With six Premier League sides all still in the competition, it is likely to cause havoc with the league fixtures that weekend, with five matches requiring rearranging – including the Manchester derby.

The semi-finals, meanwhile, will take place on the weekend of April 6 at Wembley.
