FA Cup fifth round draw

Aston Villa face an away trip to either Manchester City or Notts County in the fifth round of the FA Cup after their 3-1 defeat of Blackburn yesterday.

Meanwhile, Birmingham City were given a home tie against Sheffield Wednesday, in the fifth round of the cup for the first time this century.

This comes after their stunning comeback against Coventry City, where they fought back from 2-0 down to win 3-2.

Non-league Crawley Town were handed a dream draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford after their win against Torquay and Leyton Orient will host Arsenal in other stand-out tie of the round.

And a home tie against Brighton awaits Stoke City after their win over Wolves today.

The games will be played on the weekend of the 19th and 20th of February.
