Arsenal and United to Renew FA Cup Rivalry
After safely making it into the fourth round of the competition with wins over lower league opponents at home, Arsenal and United will face a much tougher assignment in their next FA Cup fixture.
It's a match that will stir memories of thrilling clashes gone by between these two sides, most notably the famous win for United in the 1999 semi-final and Ryan Giggs' iconic goal that seized victory for the Red Devils at Villa Park.
Overall, there aren't any sides capable of matching the pedigree of these two when it comes to the FA Cup:
Aside from that incredible game almost 20 years ago, the Gunners tend to get the better of the Red Devils in this competition too:
These two sides aren't to the standard they were in 1999, and with neither side currently in a strong position to qualify for the UEFA Champions League this term, this cup competition is likely to take on extra significance.
The same is true for Tottenham. While they remain in the hunt for four prizes at the start of 2019, they have yet to win silverware under manager Mauricio Pochettino; a trophy of any sort would be the cap on the excellent progress they have made in recent years.
A trip to Palace is far from ideal for them though. Spurs won this fixture 1-0 earlier in the season in the Premier League, but Roy Hodgson's team have found some form as of late and with a midtable finish likely, they will surely throw everything at this competition.
HLTCO thinks there are good omens for the Eagles:
Elsewhere, Chelsea will be confident of progressing with another draw at home against a lower league outfit. City will also be the big favourites when they meet Burnley, who are struggling in the Premier League this term.
Barnet, the only non-league team left in the competition, will host Brentford. After upsetting Leicester City on Sunday, Newport County's reward is a trip to Middlesbrough.
