Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Sunday's FA Cup quarter-finals - Chelsea vs. Sheffield United and Leicester City vs. Manchester United.

Chelsea vs. Sheff Utd (Sunday, 1.30pm)

A place in the semi-finals of the FA Cup is up for grabs on Sunday when Chelsea welcome Sheffield United to Stamford Bridge.

The Blues are still unbeaten under new boss Thomas Tuchel, whereas Sheffield United's own change of management got off to the worst possible start last time out.

We say: Chelsea 2-0 Sheffield United

Even accounting for the unpredictability of the FA Cup, it is difficult to back anything other than a fairly routine Chelsea win in this match.

Indeed, given Chelsea's defensive record and Sheffield United's attacking record, it is difficult to see the visitors even scoring, yet alone pulling off an upset to keep their season alive.

Leicester vs. Man Utd (Sunday, 5.00pm)

Manchester United could reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup for a record 31st time when they face Leicester City in their quarter-final at the King Power Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The two clubs are both pushing for a top-four finish in the Premier League, but will be viewing the FA Cup as a very realistic route to silverware alongside their impressive top-flight exploits.

We say: Leicester City 1-2 Manchester United

There is barely anything separating these two sides in the Premier League table, which makes a cup game between them all the more difficult to call.

Leicester will certainly fancy their chances, but their record against Man United is poor and the visitors know what it takes to get past this stage of the competition - something Leicester have not done for almost 40 years.

It should be tight, and on paper at least looks to be the standout tie of the quarter-finals, but we are backing Manchester United to make it through to the semis.
