League Two Grimsby Town are taking more than 4,500 fans to Brighton as the lowest-ranked club remaining look to claim another Premier League scalp after knocking out Southampton in the last round.
Championship leaders Burnley will be backed by about 7,800 supporters when Vincent Kompany, who won four Premier League titles, four League Cups and two FA Cups during 11 years at Manchester City, returns to Etihad Stadium.
Twelve-time winners Manchester United have to get past Fulham if they are to keep alive hopes of a domestic cup double after their Carabao Cup triumph last month.
At least one team from outside the Premier League will play at Wembley in the semi-finals on 22-23 April as Championship promotion rivals Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers meet at Bramall Lane.
Burnley’s tie at Manchester City is live on BBC One on Saturday (17:45 GMT), as is Grimsby’s game at Brighton on Sunday (14:15).
