  1. Brighton awaitpublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2023

    Manchester United and Fulham know that a semi-final game against Brighton awaits them if they can get the win today. That won't be easy given the excellent form Brighton have been in under Roberto de Zerbi.

    A blow for Sheffield United in that today's match winner Tommy Doyle and midfielder James McAtee - who are both on loan from Manchester City - won't be able to play in that semi-final tie.

  8. Fulham's Manor Solomon on fleeing war in Ukrainepublished at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2023

    Man Utd v Fulham (16:30 GMT)

    Solomon nets magnificent goal to double Fulham's lead

    "I woke up to the sound of explosions and sirens," says Manor Solomon. "It was like being in the middle of a movie."

    The Fulham and Israel winger is describing the events of 24 February 2022 when, as a player at Shakhtar Donetsk, he was living in Kyiv on the day Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

    Solomon quickly packed his belongings into suitcases and eventually made it to the border of Poland after a stressful car journey lasting 17 hours but then had to wait more than 10 hours in freezing temperatures before being "rescued" and taken back home to Israel.

    "I was running out of food and water. There was nothing to buy," he adds. "I managed to cross the border with the help of Israeli diplomats. If they hadn't come I don't know what would have happened to me."

    Thirteen months on, Solomon is preparing to face Manchester United in the FA Cup knowing a Fulham victory at Old Trafford on Sunday (16:30 GMT) will send the Cottagers to Wembley for next month's semi-finals.

    Meanwhile, the war in Ukraine goes on.

    "My heart goes out to the people who are still there," says Solomon. "Last year was the most difficult of my life."

    Man Utd v Fulham (16:30 GMT)

    We've had 10 goals in two games so far today in the FA Cup - 16 in three games if you include Manchester City's big win against Burnley yesterday. Surely this fixture will keep up the goalfest?

    Manchester United just seem to be having a little blip in the Premier League and Casemiro's suspension - he starts a four-game ban after being sent off against Southampton - worries me a bit.

    But Fulham come into this game after a couple of disappointing results too - Arsenal absolutely wiped the floor with them last weekend, and they might be running out of steam.

    Sutton's prediction: 2-1

    Brighton 5-0 Grimsby

    Brighton are going to Wembley!

    A brilliantly clinical second half has dispatched League Two Grimsby.

    The Mariners can hold their head up high, but who would want to face the Seagulls in the final four?

    Brighton's play has been very good, but Grimsby don't deserve to be losing 5-0.

    A bit of misfortune for them. Just a step too far and a disappointing end.

    Brilliant day for Brighton, they'll hope for more in the coming months.

    Nearly six. Pascal Gross plays in Mitoma but his shot goes wide of the far post.

    Two minutes have been added on by the way.

    Kaoru Mitoma

    Kaoru Mitoma gets the goal he deserves.

    He has a go with a shot from outside the box and it takes a cruel deflection off Luke Waterfall, bouncing through the defender's legs into the bottom corner.

    Brighton want a fifth. A Kaoru Mitoma backheel sets up Yasin Ayari but his shot is deflected behind for a corner.

    From the set-piece, Adam Webster has a curling effort saved by Max Crocombe.
