FA Cup fifth-round draw

The FA cup fifth round-round draw will see Manchester United have an all-Premier League tie with David Moyes’ West Ham, who beat Derby 2-0 on Monday night in the fourth round as Manchester City will be hoping to avoid a shocker at Championship club Bristol City.

Wrexham who are the lowest-ranked team left in the competition will face Tottenham in the FA Cup fifth round if they overcome their fourth-round replay against Sheffield United after it ended 3 all.

Elsewhere in the draw, Nathan Jones could put out his Southampton side against former club Luton if the Hatters beat Grimsby in their FA Cup fourth-round replay.

Leeds will await the replay between Fulham and Sunderland, while Brighton who knocked out holders Liverpool on Sunday will entertain Stoke.
