Women's FA Cup holders Manchester United will welcome second-tier Sunderland to Leigh Sports Village in the quarter-finals of the tournament next month.

The draw for the quarter-finals was held at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday with the matches set to take place on the weekend of 8 and 9 March.

Marc Skinner's United defeated Wolves 6-0 in the fifth round on Saturday to set up the tie against Championship side Sunderland, who are the only club outside of the Women's Super League still alive in the cup.

Chelsea will host the top division's bottom side Crystal Palace, while Manchester City, who beat Leicester City 3-1 in the previous round, will play Aston Villa in another all-WSL fixture.
