The FA Cup fourth round continues this week with games on Monday and Tuesday.

On Sunday, Championship strugglers Plymouth caused a big surprise with a 1-0 victory over Premier League leaders Liverpool and Aston Villa unleashed more woe on Tottenham.

Among Saturday's 10 ties, Manchester City survived a scare at League One Leyton Orient to make it through to the last 16, while Newcastle United edged past Birmingham City.

The fourth round got under way on Friday, when holders Manchester United beat Leicester City - the first of 16 ties to be played over five days.

Following the decision to scrap replays from the first round onwards, all games will be decided on the day.

If scores are level after 90 minutes extra time will be played, with a penalty shootout to follow if the teams still cannot be separated.

BBC Sport will have coverage of all 16 ties.

When is the FA Cup fifth round draw?

The fifth-round draw will take place during Monday's episode of The One Show on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.

Former England winger Theo Walcott, who won the trophy twice while with Arsenal, will conduct the draw at about 19:10 GMT.
