FA Cup Draw 2018 Schedule: 4th-Round Fixtures and Dates Released

Rory MarsdenJan 8, 2018

Manchester United face a trip to League Two side Yeovil Town in the fourth round of the FA Cup after the lowest-ranked side left in the competition were drawn against the 12-time winners on Monday. 

Runaway Premier League leaders Manchester City were also handed a relatively kind draw as they were given an away tie at either Cardiff City or Mansfield Town, who face a replay after a 0-0 draw on Saturday.

Like United, Tottenham Hotspur also face League Two opposition in the shape of Newport County, while Liverpool have another all-Premier League clash against West Bromwich Albion to negotiate at Anfield after downing Everton in the third round.

BT Sport Football relayed the draw in full, and the matches will be played over the weekend of January 26-29:

Seven-time winners and 2016-17 beaten finalists Chelsea were held to a 0-0 draw by Norwich City on Saturday but will play host to Newcastle United in the fourth round if they can beat the Canaries in the replay at Stamford Bridge.

Holders Arsenal were the highest-profile casualties of the third round as they were beaten 4-2 by Nottingham Forest in a brilliant encounter at the City Ground.

Forest will continue their 2017-18 campaign with an away clash against Hull City, who they will surely be confident of getting past having ousted the Gunners.

The Forest players can'tt hide their emotion as they secure a 4-2 win over FA Cup holders Arsenal  during The Emirates FA Cup Third Round match between Nottingham Forest and Arsenal at City Ground on January 7, 2018 in Nottingham, England.

League Two's Coventry City also produced a giantkilling with their defeat of struggling Stoke City, and the Sky Blues will travel to MK Dons for the fourth round.

While Newport and Yeovil would have been eager to travel to Wembley Stadium and Old Trafford, respectively, for their fourth-round ties, the fact the two fourth-tier sides have been handed home ties can surely only play to their advantage.

Newport produced a shock at Rodney Parade in the third round with a 2-1 defeat of Leeds United on Sunday and will hope to claim the even bigger scalp of Spurs in front of their home fans. 

Yeovil and United met as recently as January 2015 in the FA Cup at Huish Park, with the Red Devils running out 2-0 winners on that occasion after second-half goals from Ander Herrera and Angel Di Maria.
