Middlesbrough can put relegation concerns behind them in the lunchtime kick-off on Saturday when Manchester City visit the Riverside Stadium. Boro wouldn’t want a repeat of history though when they made the final – and lost – and still got relegated. City would be favourites to win but this is the FA Cup!
The Arsenal season has come off the rails recently with the FA Cup the only chance of silverware in what could be Arsene Wenger’s final season in charge. Non-league side Lincoln will look to cause a major upset at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday evening.
Sunday’s tie will see London rivals – literally – Tottenham and Millwall meet at White Hart Lane. Spurs will be favourites but the Lions have already caused upsets in this seasons competition.
Chelsea and Manchester United will round off the quarter-final ties – the original ones anyway – on Monday as Jose Mourinho returns to Stamford Bridge looking to end the Blues’ hopes of a double. Victory for United would keep alive hopes of a cup treble. The Red Devils have already won the League Cup and are going well in the Europa League too.
It goes without saying the expectation; most definitely the hope at least, will be for a positive result. But will this happen? We’ll find out soon enough.
Ahead of the game we’re looking for your views on what way you think it will go, which requires you to vote in the latest poll in one of the options you have been given.
