Following on from the cracking victory over Manchester United on Saturday evening, Wolverhampton Wanderers already knew they were set for a Semi-Final appearance in the FA Cup for the first time since 1998 and on Sunday afternoon, we discovered our Wembley opposition – fellow Premier League side Watford.
Wolves have been drawn against @WatfordFC in the semi-finals of the @EmiratesFACup.
The tie will be played at @wembleystadium the weekend of 6th/7th April.
Full fixture details and ticket information will be announced in due course. #WATWOL pic.twitter.com/IVEY94FAAx

We make the trip to London next month and the game has provisionally been set for either April 6 or April 7, but the expectation is we’ll play on the Sunday. We’ll soon have confirmation and ticket details though for the trip to the national stadium and as a good season already gets better, now fans will be wondering how much better.
Especially as, if my understanding is right (and it might not be), potentially seventh place in the Premier League may now equal Europa League entry, which could mean both sides on the day could dare to dream, as only one point separates us with them in eighth at this moment in time, as naturally the expectation and favourite tag goes to Manchester City.
Should be a good game, see you at Wembley. ????????
