Plymouth’s reward for shocking Liverpool in the FA Cup is a fifth-round trip to Manchester City.

Argyle stunned the Premier League leaders with a 1-0 victory courtesy of Ryan Hardie’s penalty on Sunday to set up a tie against Pep Guardiola’s men, who survived a scare to beat Leyton Orient 2-1 on Saturday.

Manchester United have another home clash in the fifth round as they welcome Premier League rivals Fulham to Old Trafford after beating Leicester 2-1.

Aston Villa, who saw off Tottenham 2-1 on Sunday, have been given a favourable home tie against Championship strugglers Cardiff.

Two other all-Premier League clashes see Newcastle take on Brighton and Bourenmouth host Wolves.

An all-Lancashire affair sees Preston host Burnley, with Millwall visiting either Doncaster or Crystal Palace, depending on who wins this evening.

League One side Exeter and Premier League high-flyers Nottingham Forest battle it out tomorrow for a chance to Ipswich in the fifth round.

The fifth round will take place across the weekend of March 1/2, with dates and kick-off times subject to change for broadcasting reasons.
