Teams are now just one win away from a semi-final at Wembley and there will be real belief any of them could go all the way, with an out-of-sorts Manchester City the only traditional big club left in the competition.

The reigning Premier League champions head to the South Coast to face Bournemouth as they bid to keep their hopes of silverware this season alive.

Elsewhere, Fulham host London rivals Crystal Palace at Craven Cottage in the weekend opener before top-flight disruptors Nottingham Forest travel to a resurgent Brighton.

Preston North End – the EFL's last remaining representatives – will be hunting an upset when they welcome Aston Villa to Deepdale on Sunday.
