FA Cup Quarter-final Draw: United To Face Leyton Orient or Arsenal

United have been drawn at home to Arsenal or Leyton Orient in the quarter-finals of this season's FA Cup.

Arsenal had looked set to book a trip to Old Trafford when Tomas Rosicky headed the opening goal of Sunday's fifth round meeting at Brisbane Road, only for Jonathan Tehoue to smash in a last-gasp leveller for the League One underdogs.

The two sides must now reconvene at the Emirates Stadium to decide who United will host on 12 or 13 March.

Arsenal will remain firm favourites to set up a 14th FA Cup meeting with the Reds, but will rue having to crowbar another fixture into an already hectic schedule. Should the Gunners win through, they will visit Old Trafford just after their Champions League trip to Barcelona and before United host Marseille.

The two sides have shared a rich, eventful history in the FA Cup. Of 13 meetings to date, United have six wins to Arsenal's five, with just two draws. However, this is the first time they have met in the sixth round.

United emerged triumphant from the most recent meeting between the two sides, romping to a 4-0 fifth-round win in February 2008, and arguably the most famous head-to-head was 1999's epic semi-final replay at Villa Park. Arsenal have also enjoyed fond memories at United's expense; most notably edging the 1979 and 2005 finals in dramatic circumstances.

The Reds have faced Leyton Orient 12 times - winning six games, drawing four and losing two - but have not met the East Londoners in the FA Cup before, or at all since December 1974.

This year's remaining quarter-finals pit Stoke against West Ham or Burnley, while Manchester City or Aston Villa host Everton or Reading and Bolton will travel to Birmingham.
