Forest v Man City, Palace v Villa – semi-final draw

Nottingham Forest will face Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley Stadium.

City, the 2023 FA Cup winners, secured their place in the last four with a comeback victory over Bournemouth.

Aston Villa, who comfortably defeated the last remaining Championship side Preston 3-0, will take on Crystal Palace, following their dominant quarter-final win against Fulham.

Forest reached their first FA Cup semi-final since 1991 after a dramatic penalty shootout win over Brighton.

Among the remaining teams, only Manchester City have won the competition more recently than Nottingham Forest, who last lifted the trophy in 1959. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace continue their pursuit of a first-ever FA Cup triumph.

The semi-finals are set to take place over the weekend of Saturday, 26 April.
