Manchester City have been drawn to play Brighton in the FA Cup semi-finals while Watford will take on Wolves.

The semi-final ties will be held at Wembley and take place on the weekend of 6 April.

City secured their place in the last four after coming from behind at Swansea to win 3-2. Brighton, meanwhile, edged past Millwall on penalties after their quarter-final tie ended 2-2 following extra-time.

Watford knocked out London rivals Crystal Palace, winning 2-1 at Vicarage Road, while Wolves stunned Manchester United in a lively 2-1 win on Saturday evening.

Pep Guardiola’s men stand as favourites to lift the Cup, with the side on course to secure a historic quadruple as they continue to juggle the demands of European and domestic football.
