FA CUP 2017-18 FIFTH ROUND DRAW MONDAY 29th JANUARY [BBC 7pm]

Monday night and it's again time for the draw to be made for the 5th Round of this seasons FA Cup. Although the mighty Dons adventure in this competition is over we'll still see how the rest of competition plays out, you have Manchester City looking at four competitions with the League title virtually done and they final of the League cup to come soon the FA Cup could be give them a domestic treble and it wouldn't be a big shock if they made progress to the latter stages of the Champions League too.

We will update here on Monday night with the details of the 5th round draw while it's being made the coverage of which will begin shortly after 7pm and it is shown Live on the BBC's One Show. The draw itself should be conducted by former Chelsea / AC Milan star Ruud Guilet and he will be joined by former Leicester City midfield dynamo and ballroom dancer Robbie Savage. So good luck to all who remain especially Coventry City for dismissing the franchise outfit along with Wigan Athletic, Notts County and Newport who represent the lowest league side left in the competition.
