If Liverpool beat Luton, and Havant & Waterlooville overcome Swansea City, then the non-league team will be facing a dream ticket trip to Anfield.
Apart from this, the 4th round of the FA Cup doesn’t look too exciting. The ‘big four’ - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United once again have managed to avoid each other in the early rounds, with Manchester United also getting a possible tie of the round against Tottenham.
Here is the FA Cup 4thround draw in full:
Arsenal v Stoke City/Newcastle
Coventry v Walsall/Millwall
Oldham v Huddersfield Town
Swindon/Barnet v Fulham/Bristol Rovers
Wigan v Chelsea
Luton/Liverpool v Swansea/Havant & Waterlooville
Southend v Barnsley
Southampton v Norwich/Bury
Man Utd v Tottenham/Reading
Portsmouth v Plymouth
Derby/Sheff Wed v Preston
Watford v Wolves
Peterborough v Charlton/West Brom
Sheff Utd v West Ham/Man City
Mansfield v Middlesbrough
Tranmere/Hereford v Cardiff

It’s a shame the giant-killers from the previous round, ie Oldham and Huddersfield are facing each other….

Yes, I agree. Another suggestion would be to seed the teams so that it forces the non-league and lower league teams to play Premier League opposition. This way there would be more chance of giant-killers and also big pay-days for the poorer clubs.
