Man United v Everton in FA Cup Semi-Final

Manchester United will face Everton in the FA Cup semi-finals next month. The other last-four tie will see Chelsea take on the winners of the one remaining quarter-final, Arsenal v Hull. Both games will take place at Wembley, one on April 18 and the other the following day.

The United-Everton tie will be a repeat of the 1995 final in which the Toffees recorded a shock 1-0 win thanks to a Paul Rideout goal. However, they have beaten United just once since that game 14 years ago.  – Buy Manchester United – Everton Tickets

Everton reached the semis with a 2-1 victory over Middlesbrough on Sunday, former United skipper Louis Saha scoring the winner. Everton are also captained by former United stalwart Phil Neville. United beat Fulham 4-0 on Saturday to book their place at Wembley.

Chelsea progressed with a 2-0 win at Coventry and will now face Premier League opponents for the first time in this season’s competition. A clash with London rivals Arsenal would be a repeat of the 2002 final which the Gunners won 2-0.

Arsenal must first get past Hull in a game which will be played on March 17 or 18.
