In the FA Cup’s fourth round, Tottenham will visit current champions Manchester City.

Another Premier League matchup pits Chelsea against Aston Villa, a team vying for the championship. The match will take place at Stamford Bridge. Manchester United, who won over Wigan Athletic on Monday, will travel to play either National League team Eastleigh or League Two Newport County.

Championship team Ipswich will host Maidstone United, the bottom-seeded team remaining in the cup. On the weekend of Saturday, January 27, ties will take place. The fifth-place Spurs are one point behind City in the Premier League standings, but they have triumphed over Pep Guardiola’s team in each of their five trips to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Four Premier League matches are confirmed, with Brighton visiting Sheffield United and Fulham hosting Newcastle. Their match is one of those matches. There might be two more: Luton would go to Crystal Palace or Everton if they defeat Bolton, and West Ham would host Nottingham Forest if both teams win their third-round games.

Wolves’ reward for defeating Brentford, a Premier League team, in their third-round replay will be a trip to their neighbourhood rivals, West Brom, who are vying for promotion from the Championship.

Liverpool will host either Norwich, a Championship team, or Bristol Rovers, who currently sit tenth in League One.
