When is the FA Cup fifth-round draw and who could Man Utd & Man City play?

After advancing to the FA Cup’s fifth round over the weekend, Manchester United and Manchester City may have a favorable draw in the following round.

While top sides like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Newcastle United have already been eliminated from the cup, at least seven of the sixteen teams in the fifth round will not be Premier League teams.

With a 3-1 victory over Reading on Saturday night, Erik ten Hag’s team advanced to the next round. Casemiro scored twice, while Fred also scored. For City, a 1-0 victory over Arsenal guaranteed that their name would be put in the hat for the fifth round.

Friday’s matchup between the top two teams in the Premier League was quite boring, with Nathan Ake’s goal being one of only five attempts on goal whole night.

Other teams that might challenge the Manchester pair are Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United, Leicester City, and Southampton, all of which advanced to the fourth round on Saturday.
