FA Cup draw numbers 1. Crystal Palace 2. Cambridge United or Manchester United 3. Blackburn Rovers 4. Bradford City 5. Derby County 6. Preston North End or Sheffield United 7. West Bromwich Albion 8. Aston Villa 9. Reading 10. Liverpool or Bolton 11. Leicester City 12. Arsenal 13. Rochdale or Stoke City 14. Sunderland or Fulham 15. West Ham 16. Middlesbrough Fifth-round ties to be played on 14 and 15 February. The fact that we are having trouble scoring; a replay win is a big ask. However, God willing we are victorious against Fulham, all I ask for is a Home draw. 14 v either....9....8...7...3 ??
A home draw...... Obviously having disposed of Fulham. Would like Preston / Sheffield Utd .... They'd bring a decent following. As would Derby !!!
Crystal Palace v Liverpool or Bolton Arsenal v Middlesbrough Aston Villa v Leicester City West Bromwich Albion v West Ham Bradford City v Sunderland or Fulham Blackburn Rovers v Rochdale or Stoke City Derby County v Reading Preston North End or Sheffield United v Cambridge United or Manchester United
What a massive incentive this draw is now. We need to regroup this midweek and 100% focus is required for the match against Burnley. A 'must' win is paramount to help propel us into the replay on Tuesday night. And then....who knows !!!
So of the 9 EPL teams, 3 are definitely out next round. 1 could go out tonight, and 3 more could go out next week in the replays - hopefully only 2, with us staying in it!
