When the 2023/24 FA Cup fifth round draw takes place and how to watch

The FA Cup gathers pace quickly at the start of the year and we are already wondering which teams will face each other in the fifth round.

Clubs that make it through to the final 16 sides remaining will be watching the next draw keenly, with favourable ties for Premier League teams and grudge matches elsewhere both possible.

While there's still the fourth round to get through, it's worth sticking the date for the fifth-round draw in your diary before that notification pops up on your phone informing you your team is heading to the Etihad and the dream is effectively over.

Here are all the details you need for the FA Cup fifth-round draw.

The draw for the 2023/24 FA Cup fifth round will take place on Sunday 28 January at around 14:00 GMT, shortly before Liverpool face Norwich City at Anfield. This means teams like Manchester United and Wrexham will know their potential opponents later in the competition before they compete in the fourth round.

The fifth-round draw takes place live on ITV 1/ITVX before Liverpool vs Norwich on Sunday, forming part of the pre-match coverage.

If you can't tune into the draw, it will be free to listen to on talkSPORT Radio.
