"Manchester City drawn at home to Liverpool in a blockbuster all-Premier League tie. Quadruple contenders and 14-time winners Arsenal have yet to face a top-flight side in the competition and have been given a favourable draw away to Southampton, the only Championship side left."
"Port Vale - the lowest-ranked side left in the competition - have earned an away day to Stamford Bridge. Vale are bottom of League One and last made the quarter-finals of the FA Cup in 1954, but after shocking top-flight Sunderland they will be dreaming of another cupset."
"It will be the first time Port Vale have played Chelsea in nearly 100 years, with their last competitive fixture coming in 1929. Liam Rosenior's side escaped their own scare against Wrexham, twice coming from behind and needing extra time to see off 10 men."
The FA Cup quarter-finals draw has been completed, setting up four compelling matchups. Manchester City will host Liverpool in an all-Premier League clash, while quadruple-chasing Arsenal face Southampton away in a favorable draw. Port Vale, the lowest-ranked remaining side from League One, earned an away trip to Chelsea despite their underdog status. Port Vale last reached the quarter-finals in 1954 and will face Chelsea for the first time in nearly a century, their last meeting occurring in 1929. The final quarter-final will feature the winner of Monday's London Stadium encounter between Brentford and West Ham against Leeds United.
