The FA Cup, the oldest football competition in the world, continues with the draw of the fourth round announced right after the Arsenal-Manchester United match ended. The English national competition will host the fourth round games on the weekend of Saturday 8 February, a round of 32.

There are still four games pending, but the pairings have been made either way, and they look like this:


Manchester United v Leicester City
Leeds United v Millwall or Dagenham & Redbridge
Brighton & Hove Albion v Chelsea
Preston North End or Charlton Athletic v Wycombe Wanderers
Exeter City v Nottingham Forest
Coventry City v Ipswich Town
Blackburn Rovers v Wolverhampton Wanderers
Mansfield Town or Wigan Athletic v Fulham
Birmingham City v Newcastle United
Plymouth Argyle v Liverpool
Everton v Bournemouth
Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur
Southampton v Burnley
Leyton Orient or Derby County v Manchester City
Doncaster Rovers v Crystal Palace
Stoke City v Cardiff City


Due to weather conditions (the pitch was literally frozen) four games were postponed. Today, Monday January 13, the Millwall vs. Dagenham match will take place. The other three will be played on Tuesday, all of them between Championship and League One teams (second and third English division).
