FA Cup fifth round draw details confirmed: Liverpool, Brighton and Wrexham ball numbers

Liverpool vs Brighton in the FA Cup from Anfield - Saturday, 8pm

Brighton will hope to be in the hat for the fifth round draw of the FA Cup.

The Seagulls are in action against Premier League champions Liverpool at Anfield for a Saturday, 8pm kick-off.

It's quite the late night trek for Albion fans on Valentine's Day but the 2-1 away win at Manchester United in the previous round will no doubt give them some confidence.

A cup run will also do Fabian Hurzeler the world of good as the German head coach has been criticised of late as Brighton have just one win in their last 13 Premier League matches.

Hurzeler: We have quality and belief

Hurzeler said: “It's definitely a feeling that we want to have in our memories because it wasn't so long ago that we beat Manchester United. It's very important that we always have the belief and the trust in our own quality.

“We will see a lot of players on the pitch who faced Manchester United a few weeks ago. The players still have an incredible quality and that's very important that we never forget and never lose the belief in our own quality. That's also what we need for Saturday. “

Is the draw on TV?

Yes. The FA Cup fifth round draw will be broadcast on TNT Sports and will be held at around 6.30pm from Macclesfield Town ahead of their clash against Brentford. Joe Cole and Karen Carney will be picking the balls.
