THE road to Wembley continues with eight fifth round ties to be drawn.
It’s not too long until the final in May, with current holders Man City looking to win back-to-back cups after their 6-0 demolition of Watford.

When is the FA Cup fifth round draw?
The draw will take place on Monday, January 27.
It will be held at 7.20pm before the Bournemouth vs Arsenal match.
With just sixteen teams left in the competition, things are starting to get serious.
And there are NO replays from the fifth round onwards in the FA Cup as of this season.
The move was brought in to avoid fixture congestion in a notoriously busy period of the campaign.
What TV channel is the FA Cup fifth round draw on and can I live stream it free?
ONE thing we can be sure of is the draw will be on free-to-air TV in the UK.
Last year it was broadcast live on BBC ONE’s the One Show.
And here on SunSport we’ll be running a LIVE BLOG so you don’t miss out on the ties being revealed, wherever you are.
