The draw for the fifth round of the FA Cup takes place tonight.
There is still one game of the fourth round left to play, with Macclesfield hosting Brentford on Monday night as a reward for [their win over FA Cup holders Crystal Palace](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/breaking-macclesfield-crystal-palace-out-36530389) in the previous round.
Macclesfield will be the lowest ranked side left in the draw if they can take another Premier League scalp. The fourth round brought one major upset, with League One side [Mansfield coming from behind to beat Premier League Burnley 2-1](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/man-city-salford-fa-cup-36723141).

Two fourth round matches remain with Brentford taking on Macclesfield, who disposed of last season's champions Crystal Palace. Bristol City and Port Vale won't play until March, however, after their match was postponed over the weekend due to a waterlogged pitch.
