And in the final tie drawn live on Sky Sports, Southampton will play host to Arne Slot’s Liverpool. Russell Martin’s Saints beat Championship side Stoke 3-2 at St Mary’s, while Liverpool survived a late scare against Brighton & Hove Albion in their round of 16 tie.

The Reds went 3-0 up at the Amex against the Seagulls thanks to a brace from Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz. However, late goals from Simon Adingra and Tariq Lamptey led to a nervy stoppage period for Slot’s side, who managed to hold on to book their place in the quarter-finals.
