FA Cup draw LIVE!
The FA Cup fourth round draw takes place this afternoon at the Emirates Stadium following Arsenal’s home defeat by holders Manchester United, the blockbuster clash of the third round that ended with a dramatic penalty shootout. The action began back on Thursday, and we’ve already had Premier League sides knocked out as 64 teams are eventually whittled down to 32.

Brentford lost at home to Championship strugglers Plymouth in a sizable upset, with Hull and Oxford among the second-tier teams to fall to lower EFL opponents.
