"We were due to take on the West Londoners at Emirates Stadium on that day; however, after Mauricio Pocchetino's men beat Leeds United in the fifth round on Wednesday night, they will now tackle Leicester City in the last eight of the competition over the course of that weekend instead. Details about a new date for that fixture will be announced in due course."
