Pool drawn at home to Potters

Liverpool will meet last season’s beaten finalists, Stoke, in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

The Anfield side, who booked their place in the last eight with a 6-1 defeat of Brighton yesterday, will have home advantage against Tony Pulis’ side — who won 2-0 at Crawley earlier in the day.

Yesterday’s draw at Wembley also paired Everton and Sunderland together.

The sides will play each other at Goodison Park on the weekend of March 17-18, after wins over Blackpool and Arsenal respectively on Saturday.

Everton last won the competition in 1995, while Sunderland’s best season since reaching the final 20 years ago came in 2004 when they were beaten semi-finalists.

Eight-time winners Tottenham, held to a goalless draw at Stevenage yesterday, will have a home match against Bolton if they win the replay at White Hart Lane.

Chelsea, winners of the competition in three of the past five seasons, face a replay at Birmingham if they are to reach the quarter-finals.

If they win it, they will have a home tie against the only non-Premier League side currently guaranteed a place in the last eight – Leicester.

FA Cup draw: Liverpool v Stoke, Chelsea/Birmingham v Leicester, Stevenage/Tottenham v Bolton, Everton v Sunderland.
