UPDATE 2-Soccer-Lincoln could meet Sutton, Chelsea host United in FA Cup


The glamour fixture sees Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho returning to Stamford Bridge with the holders and 12-time FA Cup winners to face his old club Chelsea, the Premier League leaders. Should the two National League clubs meet it would guarantee the outlandish feat of a minor league club making it to the semi-finals at Wembley Stadium for the first time. Lincoln manager Danny Cowley, who watched the draw at the club's Sincil Bank ground surrounded by cheering fans, called it a "win-win" draw for the team who top the National League. Sutton are 17th in the National League, 104 places below Arsenal in English football's league pyramid. Middlesbrough could host an all-Premier League tie against Manchester City if Pep Guardiola's side, as expected, beat Huddersfield Town at the second time of asking following Saturday's goalless draw at Kirklees Stadium.
