Chelsea face Manchester United while Doncaster host Palace – Fifth round FA Cup draw

Maurizio Sarri’s Chelsea will host Manchester United in a repeat of last year’s final in the fifth round of the FA Cup, as Sarri hopes to beat Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s side, who secured their place in the draw after conquering Arsenal 3-1 on Friday night.

The west London side secured the trophy at Wembley last year, an Eden Hazard 22nd minute penalty helping the then Conte side to the crown.

Elsewhere, Doncaster Rovers who beat Oldham Athletic 2-1 to reach their first FA Cup fifth round tie in 63 years welcome Premier League Crystal Palace to the Keepmoat Stadium.

Whoever wins out of Middlesborough or Newport County will play Manchester City, the two play tomorrow to see who will get the Premier League champions.

Former Premier League sides Portsmouth and QPR have the extra motive to win their replay as the winner will host Watford who saw off Rafa Benitez’s Newcastle United 2-0 at St. James’ Park.

Premier League conquerors in the last round AFC Wimbledon will host fellow cup upsetting side Millwall.

Here’s the full draw:
