Reds learn FA Cup quarter-final opponents

Manchester United will face Brighton & Hove Albion at home in the quarter-finals of the Emirates FA Cup.

The Reds will take on the Seagulls in a repeat of the 1983 FA Cup final, which we won 4-0 in a replay following a 2-2 draw in the initial tie at Wembley.

The tie at Old Trafford is the reward for Jose Mourinho’s men, who beat Huddersfield Town 2-0 in Saturday’s fifth-round tie at the John Smith’s Stadium thanks to a brace from Romelu Lukaku.

United have already beaten Chris Hughton’s side in the Premier League at the Theatre of Dreams back in November, when Lewis Dunk’s own goal separated the sides in a 1-0 victory for the Reds.
