The boss is eagerly anticipating another game at "fortress Old Trafford" in the last eight.

The tie against Marco Silva’s side is our reward for Wednesday's 3-1 victory over West Ham United

Having gone behind to Said Benrahma’s opener, United rallied, with Nayef Aguerd’s own goal levelling the scores, before strikes from Alejandro Garnacho and Fred ensured our place in the last eight. 

Erik ten Hag’s side had already defeated Everton and Reading in the third and fourth rounds respectively, with each of those ties also being played at the Theatre of Dreams. 

The quarter-final weekend will start at 17:45 GMT on Saturday 18 March, when Manchester City host Championship leaders Burnley at the Etihad Stadium. 

The other three ties will then take place the next day, beginning with an all second-tier affair between Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers at 12:00 GMT. 

Brighton & Hove Albion will welcome League Two side Grimsby Town to the Amex Stadium at 14:15 GMT, before our game completes the two days of cup action.
