Details of the FA Cup fourth round draw have been revealed.
An official announcement (see below) from The FA providing the information.
The FA Cup fourth round draw will be made after the Arsenal v Man U match, which kicks off 3pm on Sunday, the same time as Newcastle v Bromley.
That draw will see ball number 23 the one to look out for, when it comes to the fans of Newcastle United… or Bromley.
The FA official announcement on the FA Cup fourth round draw – 11 January 2025:
‘The draw for the Emirates FA Cup fourth round proper will be made on Sunday 12 January 2025, following the conclusion of the tie between Arsenal and Manchester United.
With the game at the Emirates Stadium kicking-off at 3pm GMT, we anticipate the draw to take place around 5pm GMT provided the tie doesn’t go to extra time in which case it will still happen following the conclusion of the game.
The draw will be presented by Kelly Somers, made by Martin Keown and Mark Schwarzer and shown live in the UK as part of BBC One’s coverage. It can also be seen across our official Emirates FA Cup social media channels.
