The FA Cup semi-final draw is almost upon us and we will soon know the four clubs who will be in the hat.

Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest have already booked their place in the next round on Saturday. The Eagles convincingly beat Fulham in the quarter-finals, winning 3-0 at Craven Cottage following a virtuoso performance from Eberechi Eze.

Forest, meanwhile, were taken all the way to penalties by Brighton at the Amex Stadium. Matz Sels made two crucial saves in the shootout before local hero Ryan Yates slotted home the decisive spot kick.
