With the FA Cup third round almost complete, things in England's longest-running football competition are starting to heat up.

The 2023/24 FA Cup has already thrown up some interesting results, with attention now beginning to turn to the fourth round. After all, for the big Premier League sides, lifting that trophy come the end of the season is all that matters.

But for the smaller clubs in the English Football League and below, the journey is the most important thing. And so, a glamorous fourth-round tie could be sensational for the lower-ranked clubs left in the competition, with the draw for the next stage hopefully setting up some intriguing clashes.

Here are all the details regarding the FA Cup fourth round draw.
