28 January 2008 - 13:50

The two most successful teams in FA Cup history who between them have won 21 FA trophies, Arsenal and Manchester United will meet at Old Trafford in the 5th Round of the FA Cup.

  • Chelsea join Liverpool & Man Utd in race to sign 26yo
  • Barcelona identify Arsenal midfielder as key transfer target

  • Both teams are tussling for the premiership crown with nothing to choose between them.

    Other notable draws Liverpool at home to Barnsley, Chelsea take on Any Ritchie's Huddesfield and the all championship tie between Cardiff and Wolves.



    5th round draw in full:



    Bristol Rovers v Southampton



    Cardiff City v Wolves



    Sheffield United v Middlesbrough



    Liverpool v Barnsley



    Manchester United v Arsenal
