FA Cup sixth-round draw: Manchester United to face Arsenal

 

League One’s Bradford City, who have knocked out Chelsea and Sunderland of the Premier League in the last two rounds of the FA Cup, have had their wish for a home tie in the sixth round granted with the visit of the Championship side Reading. The pairing ensures at least one Football League side will make it to the semi-finals.
Aston Villa take on West Bromwich Albion in a west Midlands Premier League derby while Liverpool’s hopes of reaching Wembley were boosted as they were drawn to face the Championship side Blackburn Rovers at Anfield.
Arsenal, the Cup holders, travel to Manchester United, who knocked out Preston in the fifth round on Monday.
All four games will be broadcast live by BBC or BT Sport. As lead broadcaster the BBC has first and third picks, with BT choosing second and fourth.
