Manchester City will face Liverpool in a blockbuster FA Cup quarterfinal, while quadruple-chasing Arsenal travel to Southampton.
Monday's draw for the last eight also handed Chelsea a home tie against League One giant-killers Port Vale, who stunned Sunderland with a 1-0 win in the fifth round on Sunday.
West Ham or Brentford, who meet on Monday, will host Leeds in the other quarterfinal.
But it is City's latest showdown with rivals Liverpool that is the stand-out tie of the round.
Pep Guardiola's side have already beaten Liverpool twice this season, winning 3-0 in Manchester in November and earning a 2-1 victory at Anfield in February.
