Defending FA Cup holders Manchester United will take on Fulham in a repeat of last season’s quarter-final, while Newcastle United are set to host Brighton in another all-Premier League encounter.

Bournemouth will face Wolverhampton Wanderers in a similar top-flight showdown.

Elsewhere, League One side Exeter City or Nottingham Forest will play Ipswich Town, and Aston Villa will host Cardiff City.
