The FA Cup final is fast approaching, with four teams left in the competition looking to get to Wembley.
Reigning champions Manchester United are out after losing on penalties to Fulham in the fifth round.

Erik ten Hag guided the Red Devils to glory with a 2-1 win over Manchester City last May, with Ruben Amorim unable to retain the trophy during his first campaign as Red Devils boss.
Pep Guardiola still has a chance of winning some silverware this season, with Man City still in the competition after seeing off Liverpool’s conquerors Plymouth Argyle last time out.
The winners will once again be rewarded with a spot in the Europa League should they finish outside the top six of the Premier League.
But City are the only team from the traditional ‘big six’ remaining, opening the door for three other Premier League sides.
