FA Cup 5th Round Draw Verdict

The draw for the fifth round of the FA Cup was made earlier this evening and there are a few interesting ties to looks forward to next month.

This is what I think of the draw.

We could have a couple of shocks coming from League 1 sides in Port Vale and Mansfield. Mansfield have the toughest tie between the two of them as they'll be facing Arsenal which would be one of the biggest shocks in the competition if they were to pull it off. Port Vale meanwhile could face Sunderland if they win their game against Bristol City.

Three Championship sides also have the chance to cause an upset with Wrexham taking on Chelsea, Southampton taking on Fulham and Norwich facing Leeds. Wrexham beating Chelsea would definitely be the bigger shock because of the difference in size of both clubs.

There could be three all-Premier League ties to look forward to as well with Newcastle taking on Man City and Wolves facing Liverpool whilst West Ham could face Brentford if they win their game against Macclesfield.
