Giant killers Barnsley and Cardiff will face each other in one of the FA cup semi finals drawn today. Portsmouth face the third Championship team left in the pot, West Bromwich Albion.
Portsmouth are the bookmakers favourites obviously, but after a weekend of quarter final shocks, anything could happen. From not having a chance against United, Pompey are 5-4 on favourites.
West Brom are the most recent of the four to have won the cup, back in 1968 when Jeff Astle was a household name as a footballer. Portsmouth have to go back to 1939, Cardiff 1927 and Barnsley 1912.
The semi finals will be played at Wembley, over the first weekend of April.
