The Cherries squeezed past Wolves on penalties to reach the last eight, while City beat Plymouth 3-1 at the Etihad. Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth side beat Manchester City on the south coast in the Premier League earlier this season.

Fulham’s reward for eliminating holders Manchester United is a London derby with Crystal Palace. The capital clubs are each chasing a first major trophy and one is guaranteed progress to the semi-finals.

Preston North End are the only non-Premier League team left in the competition. The Championship outfit will host Aston Villa at Deepdale in the last eight.

The final tie of the quarter-final draw will see Brighton host either Nottingham Forest or Ipswich, with the latter duo to play their fifth-round tie on Monday night.
