| Sixth Round Excitement |
The Sixth Round of the FA Youth Cup continues tonight with holders Manchester City facing the stern test of Newcastle United. City, who remain unbeaten this season, will be looking to set up a home tie with Everton or Norwich, who meet tomorrow night. Another game on Thursday night sees Liverpool play last years runner up, Chelsea, in what is sure to be a nailbiting encounter. The winners will face Bolton Wanderers at home, the Trotters having beaten Nottingham Forest 1-0 last week. The other tie already completed saw Arsenal blister their way past Sunderland. The Gunners will be ready to fire against either Plymouth Argyle or Tottenham Hotspur, after they have played their tie next Tuesday. The last quarter final would see the winners of Cardiff City and Birmingham City, ready to battle on Thursday, fight it out with either Ipswich Town or Watford for a place in the last four and a treasured shot of causing an upset by winning the FA Youth Cup, with Town looking to re-discover the form that won them the cup in 2005.
