FA CUP QUARTER-FINALS PREVIEW: Vincent Kompany returns to Man City with red-hot Burnley, fourth-tier Grimsby are out to make history while Fulham can ruin ...

Twelve-time winners United have not won the FA Cup since 2016. The dynamic winger duo of Tyrhys Dolan and Sorba Thomas are fantastic footballers, while Sammi Szmodics is adding goals and assists from his central role. Jon Dahl Tomasson is the boss and Rovers have never been past the last eight of the FA Cup in 12 attempts. The odds are stacked slightly against them to change that here but Rovers travel to South Yorkshire in fine form having won seven of their last eight games. Blackburn are one of six teams in England’s top four tiers to never play at the new Wembley. Burnley won the FA Cup in 1914 but these sides’ last meeting in the competition was in 2019, when City won 5-0.

FA Cup quarter-finals: preview & predictions (Ghanasoccernet.com)

The quarter-finals of the FA Cup take centre stage this weekend with eight teams still dreaming of lifting the prestigious trophy at Wembley Stadium in May.

Brighton reached the FA Cup semi-finals in 2018/19 and they are strongly fancied to end Grimsby’s interest in the competition this weekend. However, this is their third FA Cup quarter-final in the last four seasons and they will be keen to use home advantage to progress to the last four. They are only the fifth side from the fourth tier to reach the quarter-finals and are aiming to become the first to make it through to the next stage. Rovers’ superb victory at Leicester City in the previous round highlighted their ability to get results on the road and they are fancied to nick a close tie. They face a Burnley side that have been in great form in the Championship and who are on course to make an immediate return to the Premier league. [Manchester City](https://mancityblog.com/) are another team chasing multiple trophies this season and look a good bet to book their place in the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Premier League, FA Cup preview and predictions: Manchester clubs ... (News9 Live)

The 28th match week of the Premier League has already commenced. Newcastle United booked their second consecutive win after overhauling Nottingham Forest ...

After defeating Southampton in the last round, the Football League two club eye a semifinal spot as they face Brighton at the Amex Stadium. The Seagulls could progress to the semi-finals after a win against Grimsby Town. And Julen Lopetegui would try to get the best out of his attack to get those much-needed goals. Leeds must rack up some points to get out of the relegation zone. In both the fixtures of the Premier League between these sides this season, United have been unbeaten. Bees are eyeing European qualification this time around, and they have the firepower to make it possible. It could be a nerve-wracking fixture but the hosts could bag a win in injury time or penalties but a draw is expected at full-time. Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus is expected to be in the starting XI, after being out for months due to an injury. Under his mentorship, Burnley have been a force to be reckoned with in the Championship, cruising the league with a 13 points lead at the top. Arsenal faced a distressing defeat in the Europa League which knocked them out of the competition despite taking nine shots on target to their opponent Sporting Lisbon’s two. This time he would be in the opposition dugout, as he travels to Etihad with his Burnley team to play the quarter-finals of the FA Cup. They have defeated Leeds and Leicester in the last two matchweeks, and their second leg exceptional UCL win against Dortmund was sandwiched between the two PL games.

Burnley hit for six, Manchester City Wembley-bound for the FA Cup semi-finals. Burnley can be proud of what they've achieved. Of course we should be at our best all the time, but we have to perform every single game. "Every goal for the team means a lot. They went man for man with only [goalkeeper] Stefan Ortega free. They know the system. On his reception from the City supporters: "When it actually happens it still takes you by surprise. This is the way you learn, in my opinion." On facing his former club: "The only thing I’d say about his team is that they were consistent in my time and they’re still consistent now. We have to have an absolute focus on getting better. In the beginning they weren’t at their best and maybe we poked them a bit and woke them up. Burnley manager Vincent Kompany to BBC One: "The only thing I can say is that [the defeat] takes nothing away from what the lads have done so far [this season].

Vincent Kompany's Manchester City return: Burnley manager's ... (Sporting News)

Manchester City face an old friend in FA Cup quarterfinal action this weekend as former captain Vincent Kompany takes his Burnley side to the Etihad ...

"He will be back sooner or later. Ryan Mason holds the record as the youngest coach to take charge of a Premier League game with Tottenham, aged 29 years and 10 months, in 2021. The move to Burnley has seen Kompany tweak his tactics and formation due to the demands of Championship football and the greater need for energy in central areas. At Burnley, Kompany has lost just a handful of games to date and looks poised to end his first season in charge with some silverware and promotion to the Premier League. Kompany's inspirational role as City captain led the club to a first Premier League title in 2012 with the Belgian going on to win four titles in Manchester as a beloved club icon. Burnley feature in the first quarterfinal clash, as they head to defending champions Manchester City on March 18, with Clarets head coach Vincent Kompany returning to the Etihad Stadium for the first time since retiring as a player.

Manchester City v Burnley: FA Cup quarter-final – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Can Vincent Kompany sink his old club's FA Cup hopes as Burnley travel to Manchester City? Find out with Scott Murray.

The ball was begging to be bundled over the line. The Lineker Affair wasn’t the first time a prime-time light entertainment star wandered off piste in search of a greater truth. And no wonder: pretty sure they’d have settled at the start of the season for winning the Championship in style. Cork is extremely fortunate not to go into the referee’s notebook. Then suddenly Rodri sends a diagonal ball towards Walker on the right-hand edge of the box. The ball pings off the top of Beyer’s head and out for a corner. He enters the box, drops a shoulder to see off Maatsen, then rolls across to tee up Alvarez for a simple tap-in. City soon come again, Phillips striding into the box down the same flank and sending a screamer over the bar from a tight angle. Alvarez drops a shoulder to see off Al Dakhil, jinks inside, and absolutely roofs his shot into the net. 83 min: Cullen sweeps a cross in from the left. 87 min: De Bruyne dribbles down the inside left channel and draws a clumsy foul from Cullen. According to Gary Lineker on the BBC, Erling Haaland has spent the last two matches scoring goals at the rate of one every 15 minutes and 45 seconds.

Man City vs Burnley live score, updates, highlights from the FA Cup ... (Sporting News)

Vincent Kompany makes an emotional return to Manchester City on Saturday when he leads his Burnley side in an FA Cup quarterfinal at the Etihad Stadium.

City were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by relegation-threatened Southampton and you'd struggle to make a compelling case that the Saints are a better team this season than the runaway Championship leaders. The Norway superstar is one shy of 40 for the season in all competitions. 10th minute: Ortega goes long looking for Haaland, who harasses Al Dakhil all the way back to his byline and legally in the view of the referee. The attack moves out to the right and Walker's cross is blocked. City come again and Maatsen slides in with a fine challenge on Alvarez in the box. 21st minute: City are getting into a mess playing through the Burnley press. None for City, which means Haaland is still on in pursuit of his sixth (SIXTH!) hat-trick of the season. 23rd minute: Cullen slides a delicious ball through to Tella and it needs an inch-perfect tackle from Dias to avert the danger. Haaland helped himself to a sixth hat-trick of the season and moved on to 42 for the campaign, which is 41 more than Cole Palmer, who came off the bench to score. For all the attacking talent they have on the pitch, Bernardo Silva and Ilkay Gundogan resting up on the bench means City lack structure and control. 76th minute: Peacock-Farrell dallies on the ball near his own six-yard box and a sliding Alvarez blocks his clearance behind. Haaland's penalty saw them squeak past Palace 1-0 and he then lit the fire for them to win the next two games in a far more emphatic manner.

FA Cup: Quarterfinal schedule, how to watch live, predictions (Premier League News, Video, Scores | NBC Sports' ProSoccerTalk)

The FA Cup continues to deliver plenty of shocks and plenty of Premier League clubs have been on the receiving end as the quarterfinal is set.

As for Real, Toni Kroos is still steering the ship until it gets to the places where Karim Benzema and Vinicius Jr can finish. He’s played in 23 of Man City’s 24 games, scoring 26 goals. And even though Haaland is currently overperforming his expected goals total, it’s clear that projecting him for the Premier League record is rather realistic. Below is the full schedule, as you can watch all 380 games across our NBC platforms. Palace is going to hope to get something out of Wilfried Zaha here. Gabriel Jesus started Thursday in the Europa League, so it’s easy to predict a depth flex from the Gunners on Sunday rather than another start for their just-fit star.

The celebration. The goal. The prospect of 'earning' the right to play at Wembley was a key aspect of FA Cup campaigns with that factor now brought forward to the semifinal stage. Fans of teams playing in the FA Cup semifinals have been frustrated by the FA's decision to move the games to Wembley for a host of reasons.

However, following the stadium's redevelopment, the FA announced the bold move to also play all FA Cup semifinal matches at the stadium, alongside the final itself, from 2008 onwards.

Grimsby captain Luke Waterfall eyeing Brighton upset with Wembley ... (Mirror.co.uk)

In a port where the catch of the day was once haddock or cod in the back of the net, Grimsby are planning to land their biggest fish yet.

It was brilliant at Southampton when all those inflatable fish were flying on the pitch at full-time and we were chucking them back. “Gates were down to 2,500 when I first walked in the door, but they were up to 9,500 by the end of that season and it was a fast track towards reconnecting a club with its fans and the city. It was a magical time to be involved in the rebuild of a football club, and that Cup run was the start of Lincoln climbing back from non-League to where they are now. On that run we beat Brighton, who were managed by Chris Hughton and flying high in the Championship at the time, and when we went 1-0 down early on you think, 'Oh no, this is going to be a long day at the office.' “Every young kid rehearses doing that in the mirror, but only a handful get to live the dream. “It was a real eye-opener speaking to the pilots about teamwork and their trust in each other.
