FA CUP: Gunner to face Red Devils in the quarter finals

Arsenal have been drawn against Manchester United in the FA Cup
quarter-finals, while Liverpool will host Championship side Blackburn Rovers.

The Red Devils came from behind to beat Preston 3-1 on Monday night to set up the tie , while the other two Premier League giants both survived a rather predictable fifth round, with Sunderland the biggest casualties as they were knocked out by Chelsea-tormentors Bradford City, who will now take on Reading.

Louis van Gaal's men will host the FA Cup holders at Old Trafford as they bid to end their own 11-year wait for success in England's most historic cup competition.

Liverpool's reward for beating Crystal Palace in the fifth round is a home tie against Blackburn, who are ninth in the Championship and struggling to keep pace in the promotion race - though have pedigree in the cup, having won it six times previously.

Elsewhere, Tim Sherwood's Aston Villa have been handed a West Midlands derby against Tony Pulis's West Brom, while Bradford will fancy their chances against Championship side Reading, having already knocked out Chelsea and Sunderland.

DRAW IN FULL:

Liverpool v Blackburn Rovers
