Update:

Wrexham AFC are through to the next round of the FA Cup after a 1-0 victory over Ipswich Town on Friday. The Red Dragons took a first-half lead through Josh Windass and managed to withstand late pressure from their Championship promotion rivals.

That result ensures that Wrexham progress to the fifth round for the first time since the 1996/97 season, when the team made it to the quarter-final stage of the world’s oldest national soccer competition.

Joining Wrexham in the fifth round are Premier League side Chelsea, who had a comfortable 4-0 win over Hull City in their game. Both teams will have to wait until the fifth-round draw to discover their opponents.

When is the FA Cup fifth-round draw?

The FA has announced that the draw will be held on Monday, February 16 at 1:35pm ET (6:35pm GMT). It will be a part of the coverage for the meeting between Macclesfield and Brentford, the final fixture of the fifth-round weekend.

Fans around the world will be able to watch the draw for free on the TNT Sports YouTube channel and related social media channels. In the United States, the draw will be broadcast live on ESPN+.
