Preamble

Sixth-tier Macclesfield FC face Brentford after this draw, and the Silkmen bring a welcome touch of romance to proceedings following a fourth-round weekend short of surprises. Mansfield Town (who won at Burnley) and Port Vale (whose tie with Bristol City was postponed) are the other teams from outside the top two divisions to make it.

Mansfield were the story of the weekend, prevailing 2-1 at Turf Moor to reach the last 16 for the first time since 1975. Wrexham, who saw off Ipswich on Friday, last made the fifth round in 1997. Only two other Championship clubs are definitely through – Norwich and Southampton – alongside 10 Premier League sides. Find out who they all get at 6.30pm (GMT).
