Jose Mourinho is coming back to his old stomping ground.
It’s still that, a stomping ground, even if he’s the one being stomped on now.
Manchester United will face Chelsea away at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup quarter-final. The last time they went back there, it didn’t end too well.
Giant-killers Lincoln City have been rewarded for their shock win at Burnley with a trip to either Sutton United or Arsenal.
The National League side stunned their Premier League opponents thanks to Sean Raggett’s late headed goal, making them the first non-league club to reach this stage of the competition in more than a century.
Fellow non-leaguers Sutton United, who host Arsenal on Monday night, could guarantee a non-league club in the semi-finals if they can cause an upset against the Gunners – if you’d even call it an upset given what Arsenal are up to nowadays.

Millwall, who eliminated Premier League champions Leicester City with a late 1-0 win of their own, will travel to Tottenham for a London derby.
The final game of the quarter-finals will see Middlesbrough host either Manchester City or Huddersfield Town, who are due to replay their fifth-round game after a goalless draw.
The tie of the round is no doubt the clash that will unfold at table-toppers Chelsea. United had to come from behind to beat Championship side Blackburn Rovers, with substitute Zlatan Ibrahimović slotting home the winner 15 minutes from time.
