FA Cup fifth round draw details and ball numbers including Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool | Football | Sport
The FA Cup fifth round draw will take place on Sunday, February 6 ahead of Liverpool’s clash with Cardiff. The draw will be broadcast live on ITV and will feature a number of the Premier League biggest clubs.
But to earn their place in the hat for the next round many of the top sides face tough tests.
Defending champions Leicester take on Nottingham Forest, who knocked Arsenal out in the third round.
Chelsea face a potential upset when they host League One Plymouth Argyle, while Championship strugglers Cardiff will look to build some momentum in a one-off showdown with Liverpool.
There are no replays in this year’s third and fourth rounds so ties will go straight to extra-time and penalties if drawn after 90 minutes.
