Relive Sports Mole's coverage of the draw for the fourth round of the FA Cup.
By , Editor-in-chief

Teams from the Premier League and Championship got their FA Cup campaigns underway at the weekend in a largely uneventful set of third-round ties.

Holders Arsenal eased through with a 3-1 win over Sunderland, while Manchester United had to rely on a stoppage-time penalty from Wayne Rooney to scrape past League One Sheffield United.

Lower-league opposition also proved a headache for Liverpool, West Bromwich Albion and Aston Villa, all of whom now face replays after being held to draws, while Swansea City were the biggest giants to fall as they went down 3-2 at Oxford United.

For those who progressed, the fourth round awaits at the end of the month - but who are they facing? Find out in our live coverage of the draw below.

7.26pm
That concludes the draw for the fourth round of the FA Cup. Holders Arsenal welcome Championship side Burnley to the Emirates, while Manchester United face a tricky trip to second-tier title-chasers Derby County. Cup favourites Manchester City will travel to the winners of the replay between Wycombe and Aston Villa, while Liverpool will welcome fellow Premier League side West Ham to Anfield if they overcome Exeter City in their rematch. Thanks for joining us!

7.12pm
Holders Arsenal eased forward in the competition with a 3-1 win over Sunderland, while there were also straightforward victories for Chelsea, Manchester City and Everton. Despite the Gunners winning the trophy two seasons in a row, most bookmakers currently have City as the favourites to be named outright winner, although expect the odds to shift tonight according to who draws whom.
7.10pm
The lowest-ranked side left in the competition are National League promotion hopefuls Eastleigh, who successfully held Championship strugglers Bolton Wanderers at Ten Acres on Saturday. Meanwhile, fourth-tier Oxford United pulled off the only giant-killing of the weekend as they defeated Swansea City 3-2 to make their first appearance in the fourth round since 1999.
7.08pm
In all, ten of the 32 third-round fixtures ended in a stalemate, while one game - Newport vs. Blackburn Rovers - had to be postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. The replays have all been scheduled for the evening of Tuesday, January 19, although Liverpool's encounter with Exeter will take place a day later. The game will be the third home fixture inside seven days for the Reds, who must also face Arsenal and Manchester United in the league in that time.
7.06pm
Liverpool too require a replay in order to progress, although theirs came about in less spectacular fashion. Jurgen Klopp's men had to come from behind twice in order to salvage a draw at fourth-tier Exeter City on Friday night, leaving the German incredulous at the prospect of another game in an already-packed January schedule.
7.04pm
Tottenham Hotspur also had a last-gasp penalty to thank for keeping their cup dreams alive as Harry Kane made no mistake from the spot in the 89th minute of Spurs' encounter with Leicester City to level the scores at 2-2 and force a replay.
7.02pm
It's fair to say that last weekend will not exactly go down as the most memorable rounds in FA Cup history, although it was not without some share of drama. After 90 minutes of "uninspired" play (to put it kindly), Manchester United had to rely on a stoppage-time penalty from one Wayne Rooney to see them past League One side Sheffield United.

7.00pm
Hello and welcome to Sports Mole's live coverage of the draw for the fourth round of the FA Cup. In around 15 minutes' time, Ian Wright will pluck out the balls to determine the 16 ties to be played in the next phase of the competition.
