Manchester City will travel to Sheffield Wednesday in the fifth round as they continue the defence of the FA Cup.    

Northampton Town or Derby County will host Manchester United, while Liverpool will travel to Chelsea if they defeat Shrewsbury Town in their fourth-round replay.

Arsenal will be back on the south coast to play Portsmouth after beating Bournemouth 2-1 on Monday.

The matches will be played from March 2, with full dates to be confirmed.

           

5th-Round Draw

 

Wayne Rooney could be set to face his former side after Derby were drawn against Manchester United.

The Rams will host Northampton in a fourth-round replay on February 4, and if they are successful, Rooney could feature against the Red Devils.

The fourth round failed to produce winners from six ties, setting up multiple replays. However, Tuesday's draw brought together interesting pairings for the next phase.

Liverpool will expect to beat Shrewsbury at Anfield in their replay, even with a youthful side, and the Premier League's runaway leaders should be ready for a mouthwatering clash at Chelsea if they send out their first-choice side.

A guaranteed all-Premier League tie was pulled out of the bag, pitting Tottenham Hotspur or Southampton at home to Norwich CityJose Mourinho's side watched the Saints grab an 87th-minute equaliser through Sofiane Boufal.

Manchester City will feel comfortable with their draw sending them to Championship club Sheffield Wednesday.

The holders made short work of Fulham, who sit seven places above the Owls in the second tier, winning 4-0 in the fourth round at the Etihad.

Arsenal produced a comprehensive display against the Cherries, and Mikel Arteta will be pleased with what he's seeing from his youngsters.

Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah made it 2-0 within 26 minutes, and Eddie Howe's side could only find a late consolation through Sam Surridge. The Gunners now play Pompey at Fratton Park.
