Manchester City will take on reigning Premier League champions Liverpool in the most high-profile tie of the FA Cup quarter-finals.

The past weekend of FA Cup action saw several shocks, with League One strugglers Port Vale knocking out Sunderland at Vale Park.

There was also victory for Championship side Southampton over Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Chelsea, meanwhile, were taken to extra time by another Championship side in Wrexham but managed to win 4-2.

On the contrary, Liverpool secured their safe passage through to the last eight with a 3-0 win over Wolves at Molineux, while Manchester City came from behind to win 3-1 at Newcastle on Saturday.

Arsenal would have been briefly worried about a shock elimination to League One side Mansfield Town, with Nigel Clough's side making it 1-1 on 50 minutes after Noni Madueke had given the Gunners a lead.

But substitute Eberechi Eze fired into the top right corner from 12 yards on 66 minutes to score what proved to be the winner for the Premier League leaders.

Now, the FA Cup quarter-final ties have been drawn out at the London Stadium.

Alongside Manchester City versus Liverpool, Arsenal have been drawn in another away fixture against Championship side Southampton.

Port Vale, meanwhile, have been rewarded for their 1-0 victory over Sunderland on Sunday with a trip to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea.

And the final match sees Leeds host the winner of Monday's final last 16 clash between West Ham and Brentford at Elland Road.
