Sheffield United will face Tottenham at home in the FA Cup fifth round after they overcame non-League Wrexham in their fourth-round replay at Bramall Lane.

The Championship high-flyers scored two stoppage-time goals to beat the lowest-ranked team left in the competition to set up a home tie against Premier League Spurs on March 1.

Meanwhile, Manchester United have an all-Premier League tie with David Moyes' West Ham, who beat Derby 2-0 on Monday night in the fourth round, while Manchester City will be hoping to avoid a shock at Championship club Bristol City.

Man Utd's staggering home run continues

Since losing 3-1 to Leicester in the FA Cup quarter-final during the 2020/21 season, Manchester United have been drawn to play at home in eight consecutive domestic cup ties.

That continues in the FA Cup after that draw. They will take on the winner of this evening's tie between Derby and West Ham.
