FA Cup fourth round draw- Arsenal set to play Man Utd

Manchester City earlier swept past fellow English Premier League team Burnley 5-0 in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday, extending their run of wins to eight in all competitions. In that streak, the team has 33 goals and has not conceded a goal in the last six games — a first under Guardiola.

Wolverhampton Wanderers avoided becoming the latest Premier League casualty only by scoring in the third minute of injury time to salvage a 2-2 draw at third-tier Shrewsbury.

Wolves, who knocked out Liverpool in the third round, rested key players for the game despite not being in genuine danger of relegation in its first season back in the Premier League.

In an all-Premier League matchup, Watford won 2-0 at Newcastle, which hasn't progressed beyond the fourth round since 2006. Brighton was taken to a replay by second-tier West Bromwich Albion after a 0-0 draw.

And after Everton were stunned by Millwall, West Ham were knocked out by AFC Wimbledon. Re-live the action:

Just a reminder that the FA Cup action does not stop after the 3pm games.

Everton and West Ham are in action in the evening, with the former travelling to The Den to take on Millwall before the Hammers travel to AFC Wimbledon.

Speaking of ominous..... Kick-off just a few minutes away at the Etihad and seven other grounds.

Will we see any shocks this afternoon?

4 min: Man City 0-0 Burnley

Man City have started well and look on top in the early stages, with Gabriel Jesus looking a threat in behind the visitors' back line.

7 min: Swansea 0-0 Gillingham

The hosts come so close to taking the lead, but Barrie McKay curls an effort from 25 yards on to the post.

Couple of chances for Wolves and Manchester City in their respective games, but Matt Doherty and Ilkay Gundogan's shots were both wild.
