When is the FA Cup fourth round draw? TV channel, time, Liverpool and Everton ball numbers

The FA Cup third round is approaching its final ties and attention is slowly turning toward the fourth-round draw.

While there have been some upsets, with Cambridge United's win at Newcastle United being the biggest headline-grabber, Everton managed to get past Championship side Hull City on Saturday night, and Liverpool have avoided a giant-killing at home to Shrewsbury Town on Sunday.

The final third-round clash will take on Monday night when Manchester United welcome Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa to Old Trafford.

But by that time the draw for the fourth round will already have taken place.

So when will the draw take place?

It is scheduled to be drawn live on ITV on Sunday (January 9) after the channel broadcasts its first match, between West Ham United and Leeds United at the London Stadium, which kicks-off at 2pm, and before its second broadcast match, between Nottingham Forest and Arsenal at the City Ground, which kicks-off at 5.10pm.

Given there are no replays in the third round, with all ties going to extra-time if they are level after 90 minutes, and penalties if needed after an additional 30, expect the draw to be made from around 4.30pm.
