When is the FA Cup quarter-final draw? Time, teams, and schedule
Manchester United will face West Ham in the fifth round of the FA Cup, with a place in the quarter-finals up for grabs.
Erik ten Hag and Manchester United will continue their trophy hunt after their Carabao Cup final victory over Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.
Marcus Rashford and Casemiro were on the scoresheet at Wembley stadium, and will no doubt be looking to continue their brilliant winning form over the next week.
After this tie, United will travel to Liverpool to face Jurgen Klopp’s Reds at Anfield.
When is the draw?
The draw will take place after the conclusion of the tie between Sheffield United v Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening.
The draw will be broadcast live on BBC One.

Four teams have already qualified for the quarter-final of the FA Cup, all playing on Tuesday evening. As mentioned above, Brighton beat Stoke City, while cross-town rivals Manchester City fended off Bristol City 3-0.
A Premier League-team tie against Fulham and Leeds United ended with Fulham progressing after scoring twice, and Leicester City fell to an unlikely defeat to Blackburn Rovers.
