The draw for the FA Cup 5th Round was made yesterday with some fairly interesting ties to look forward to at the beginning of March.
Non-league Wrexham could have the chance to cause a major upset if they win their replay against Sheffield United as they'll be taking on Premier League Tottenham. The National League leaders who are co-owned by Hollywood duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney haven't had a game like this for a number of years and it would arguably be the biggest shock in the history of the FA Cup if they were to ull it off. But they have to win their 4th Round replay against Sheffield United first.
Three Championship sides have the chance to cause an upset with Stoke taking on Brighton, Bristol City facing Man City and either Blackburn or Birmingham taking on Leicester. Luton and Sunderland could also have the chance to cause an upset as they could face Leeds and Southampton respectively. But they both need to win their respective replays against Grimsby and Fulham if they're to have the chance.
There is only one all Premier League tie in this round with Man United taking on West Ham seeing David Moyes returning to his old club once again.
FULL 5TH ROUND DRAW:
Southampton v Luton/Grimsby
Leicester v Blackburn/Birmingham
Stoke v Brighton
Wrexham/Sheffield United v Tottenham
Fulham/Sunderland v Leeds
Bristol City v Man City
Man United v West Ham
Ipswich/Burnley v Sheffield Wednesday/Fleetwood
