The FA Cup quarter-final draw takes place on Monday evening, broadcast live from the London Stadium. The draw is timed just before the final fifth-round match between West Ham and Brentford gets underway.

Supporters can watch the draw live on UK television through TNT Sports 1, with coverage beginning at around 7.05pm UK time. The programme will be hosted by presenters Darren Fletcher and Ally McCoist as part of the pre-match preparations in east London.

For those who prefer to stream the event, the draw will be shown live on the discovery+ platform and the official TNT Sports YouTube channel. These digital alternatives ensure fans can follow the proceedings on their smartphones, tablets or computers.

TNT Sports is accessible to subscribers via several major television providers, including Sky, EE TV, and Virgin Media. Depending on your particular package, you can view the draw through the standard sports channels or the dedicated discovery+ app.

Former England goalkeeper Joe Hart will be the special guest tasked with drawing the teams out of the hat during the ceremony. He will join the TNT Sports team to decide the fixtures for the final eight teams left in the competition.

Ball No. 1 has been allocated to Southampton following their surprise victory over Fulham. Ball No. 2 represents Port Vale, who triumphed over Sunderland 1-0 on Sunday.

Ball No. 3 is set aside for Manchester City, and Leeds claimed ball No. 4 after defeating Norwich City. Arsenal have been given ball No. 5, Liverpool have taken ball No. 6 and Chelsea are in possession of ball No. 7, while the eighth and final ball will go to the winner of the match between West Ham and Brentford.

It's crucial to note matches in this round will take place over the weekend of April 4 and 5, with no chance for replays. If any match results in a draw after 90 minutes, it will be settled by extra-time and a penalty shootout if necessary.
