Four teams remain in the FA Cup draw with Premier League champions Manchester City set to face Championship side Sheffield United in the semi-finals. On the other side of the draw, Brighton will go up against Manchester United for a spot in the 2023 FA Cup final. United, who are hoping to secure a League and FA Cup double, vanquished nine-man Fulham 3-1 in the last quarter-final tie. The semi-finals will be held at Wembley across the weekend of Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 April. Manchester City secured their place in the semis with a resounding 6-0 victory over Vincent Kompany's Burnley, with Erling Haaland notching his sixth City hat-trick in the rout. Brighton emphatically outclassed League Two side Grimsby Town 5-0, while Sheffield United scored an injury-time winner to beat fellow Championship outfit Blackburn Rovers.
