A short-but-sweet ceremony is due to get underway on Sunday afternoon. By then, three of the four semi-finalists will have been revealed with Manchester City thrashing Burnley 6-0 on Saturday evening after another Erling Haaland hat-trick to make it a miserable return to the Etihad Stadium for club icon Vincent Kompany.
Sunday pits Sheffield United against Championship promotion rivals Blackburn before League Two minnows Grimsby head to high-flying Brighton. Following the draw, Manchester United host Fulham in an all-Premier League contest at Old Trafford.
