When is the FA Cup 4th round? Dates, fixtures and draw in full

As Arsenal's tie away to Oxford United on Monday night completes an action-packed FA Cup weekend, we have a clearer idea of which 32 clubs will contest the 4th Round of the oldest competition in football.

Premier League and Championship teams entered in the 3rd Round, as is tradition, producing more fine matches and astounding results to add to the competition's rich encyclopedia.

The pick of the bunch were Stevenage's late comeback to defeat Aston Villa on away soil, whilst National League Wrexham's Hollywood dream took another huge step as they held off Coventry City in a 4-3 thriller to reach the next stage. Sheffield Wednesday's victory over high-flying Newcastle United can also stake a claim to tie of the round.

As for the sides most would consider the usual favourites, both Manchester clubs made it through with relative ease against top tier opposition - United overcoming Everton at Old Trafford before City dismantled Chelsea at the Etihad - and Harry Kane earned Tottenham 's qualification with a solo strike against Portsmouth.

On the other hand, current holders Liverpool are one of a several teams who await their fate in this season's FA Cup, after a hotly-contested encounter against Wolves at Anfield ended 2-2, resulting in a replay.

So, without further ado, football.london brings the full details of the FA Cup's 4th Round, including the ties to be played and the weekend they have been pencilled in for.
