FA Cup Quarter-Final Draw: Bournemouth to Face Manchester City, Preston Hosts Aston Villa

With Newcastle United and Manchester United eliminated, the FA Cup field has narrowed significantly. The quarter-final draw has set up some intriguing matchups, with Preston North End, the only remaining Championship club, set to host Aston Villa under the guidance of Unai Emery. Fulham, who knocked out Manchester United, will face Crystal Palace in a London derby. Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion will host the winner of the Nottingham Forest vs. Ipswich Town fifth-round match, which will be played on Monday.

Notably, four of the quarter-finalists—Fulham, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Brighton—have never won the FA Cup, adding extra motivation for these teams to make history.

Quarter-Final Fixtures:
- Fulham vs. Crystal Palace
- Preston North End vs. Aston Villa
- Bournemouth vs. Manchester City
- Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Nottingham Forest or Ipswich Town

The matches will take place on Saturday, March 29.
