Queens Park Rangers and Watford kick-off the fifth round of the FA Cup tonight. Also in action are Brighton, who host Derby tomorrow while Manchester City travel to Newport County. Sunday’s action will see Premier League duo Wolves and Crystal Palace travel Bristol City and Doncaster Rovers respectively. But the highlight of the round will undoubtedly be Monday night’s all-Premier League clash between holders Chelsea and Manchester United. The Blues have been handed a huge boost as United attacking duo Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial are set to miss out. Interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: "I think they'll be out for two to three weeks." Winning clubs from the fifth round will receive £720,000 after the FA doubled the prize fund at the start of the season. A minute’s applause will take place ahead of each tie this weekend as a tribute to Gordon Banks, who died earlier this week.FA Cup quarter-final draw The draw for the FA Cup quarter-finals will take place following the conclusion of Chelsea vs Man Utd on Monday night.
