Chelsea face a potentially awkward-looking clash away at Wrexham, whilst Liverpool return to Molineux looking to avenge Tuesday night’s defeat in the Premier League.

Are there replays in the FA Cup this year?
Replays are not in use in any of the full rounds of this season’s FA Cup.
The FA scrapped replays from the first round onwards in last year’s competition and that has continued into the 2025/26 edition.
The move is aimed at reducing fixture congestion in an already busy calendar.
