Manchester United have drawn current Premier League title rivals, Liverpool in the headline tie from the Fourth Round draw of 2020-21 FA Cup.
Utd will host Liverpool at Old Trafford in a blockbuster Fourth Round clash as both teams look to mount a challenge for this season’s FA Cup title.
The winner of that tie would then host the winner of Stockport or West Ham’s tie against Doncaster Rovers in the Fifth Round, following the decision to draw both rounds together for fixture scheduling logistics.
League Two’s Cheltenham Town face a difficult Fourth Round tie as they welcome Manchester City to Whaddon Road, with the winners then visiting Swansea or Nottingham Forest in the Fifth Round.
Title holders, Arsenal will face either Southampton or Shrewsbury in the next round, with the winner facing an away trip in the Fifth Round to the winner of Chorley’s mouth-watering home tie against Premier League’s Wolves.
Tottenham will face Wycombe at Adams Park in the Fourth Round, ahead of a potential Fifth Round trip to Goodison Park or Hillsborough to face the winner of Everton’s tie against Sheffield Wednesday.
Brentford will again host Leicester at the Fourth Round stage for a second consecutive season, in which the winner will host Brighton or League One’s Blackpool for a spot in the Quarter-Finals.
