EXCITING PROSPECTS AND TOUGH CHALLENGES: FA CUP FOURTH ROUND DRAW UNVEILED

The FA Cup fourth round draw has set the stage for an exciting array of matchups, with holders Manchester City facing a tough challenge at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and non-league Eastleigh potentially clashing with Manchester United.

Holders Manchester City face a tough challenge as they aim to break their winless streak at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the FA Cup fourth round. Despite losing on all five previous visits since the stadium opened in 2019, City will be eager to turn the tide in their favor. Meanwhile, non-league Eastleigh could potentially clash with Manchester United, adding an exciting prospect to the tournament.

 

Tottenham, who secured a 1-0 victory over Burnley to advance to the last 32, will be looking to build on their recent success. Their previous encounter with City ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw, with Tottenham scoring a late equalizer at the Etihad.

 

Later on Monday, Manchester United will be in action away to League One Wigan, setting the stage for an intriguing match. The winners of this fixture will face either Eastleigh of the National League or League Two's Newport County, who are set to compete in a third-round replay on January 16.

 

In another notable fixture, Chelsea will host Aston Villa, while Maidstone, the only remaining non-league side, will travel to face Championship high-flyers Ipswich. Premier League leaders Liverpool, fresh from a 2-0 victory over Arsenal, will host the winner of the Norwich or Bristol Rovers match, which was a highlight of the third round ties.

 

The full draw includes a range of exciting matchups, such as Watford versus Southampton, Blackburn versus Wrexham, Bournemouth versus Swansea, and West Brom versus Brentford or Wolves. Additionally, West Ham or Bristol City will face Nottingham Forest or Blackpool, and Leicester will take on Hull or Birmingham. Other fixtures include Sheffield Wednesday versus Coventry, Ipswich versus Maidstone, Tottenham versus Manchester City, Leeds versus Plymouth, Crystal Palace or Everton versus Luton or Bolton, Newport or Eastleigh versus Manchester United, Sheffield United versus Brighton, and Fulham versus Newcastle.
