Why are the quarter-finals in June?

The draw for the quarter-finals took place on 4 March and the four ties were originally scheduled to be played on 21-22 March.

They were all postponed after football in England was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The FA announced at the end of May a provisional restart date of 27-28 June, with all of this season's remaining ties to be played behind closed doors.

"The competition has been an integral part of the English football calendar for nearly 150 years, and we'd like to thank the Premier League executive and clubs for their support in scheduling the remaining matches during this unprecedented time," said FA chief executive officer Mark Bullingham.

When is the draw and where are the semi-finals and final?

The draw for the semi-finals will take place during half-time of Sunday's Newcastle v Manchester City quarter-final, which is being shown live on BBC One.

Former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer, who will be part of the BBC team at St James' Park, will conduct the draw.

Due to social distancing rules, BBC guests and presenter Gary Lineker will be stationed at least two metres apart from one another, and crew members.

Former England captain Shearer will be the only person handling the balls during the draw, and all balls and equipment prior to the draw will be thoroughly disinfected.

The semi-finals, which are scheduled to be played at Wembley, will take place across the weekend 18-19 July, with the final on Saturday, 1 August at Wembley - six days after the final day of the Premier League season on 26 July.

This season's final will be renamed the Heads Up FA Cup final to raise mental health awareness.

Are there replays?

There are no replays at this stage of the competition.

If games are level after 90 minutes, there will be an additional 30 minutes of extra time.

A penalty shootout will take place to decide a winner if the game is still level at 120 minutes.

Who's left?

Seven-hundred-and-thirty-six teams entered this season's competition, with the FA Cup starting on 9 August 2019 with the extra preliminary round.

Two non-league sides - Hartlepool United and AFC Fylde - reached the third round, while the last six non-Premier League sides were knocked out of the fifth round.

Norwich City, the lowest ranked club left, and Leicester City are the only two clubs left yet to win the FA Cup, while Arsenal and Manchester United have won it 25 times between them.

More of a hindrance than a help? Bottom of the Premier League table with seven matches left, the Canaries are running out of time to save themselves from a quick return to the Championship. However, they are enjoying their best FA Cup run in 28 years.
