Wins for Watford and Villa please.
Villa have just announced Covid outbreak and closing their training centre ... they might have to give the Scousers a bye in to next round without playing ... as they are due to play tomorrow ...

Not sure what the rules are in FA but that was the case for League Cup when Spurs got a bye in one of the earlier rounds ...

Scouse luck ... they’re having a proper winter break ... will be more than two weeks between their games now I guess.
 
Call me an old traditionalist, but...........is there nothing they won't stop at to demean the FA Cup ? 4th & 5th round draws both at once ? FFS.

Covid notwithstanding, the FA continue to sell-off the FA Cup to the TV companies. What was once the most famous club trophy in the world is now sadly an also-ran.

Why stop at the 4th & 5th round...why not go all the way to the semis ffs?

easiest team and at home. then we can plan like today and rest players after winning the game in first half. thats the best can be expected of pep as he just wont start with a kids team so this is second best so someone like liverpool or united in the draw wont be ideal in such a busy period
