Leicester City have learned who they will face in the FA Cup Fourth Round.
The Foxes earned their place in the hat for the draw after a convincing 6-2 win against Queens Park Rangers.
Wout Faes might’ve earned his place back in the Leicester squad after a great display that was capped off by a wonder strike.
Bilal El Khannouss and Facundo Buonanotte also caught the eye as Ruud van Nistelrooy singled out the Foxes duo.
As a reward for their emphatic win, they have been given a Fourth Round tie away to Manchester United, where Van Nistelrooy will return to his former club.
Leicester City fans react to drawing Man United in FA Cup Fourth Round
Following the news that the Foxes would play against Man United after they beat Arsenal on penalties, Van Nistelrooy will certainly be happy to return to Old Trafford.
But for many Leicester fans, this is the draw they didn’t want to see.
“Manchester United…you couldn’t make it up could you haha,” wrote one fan.
A second commented: “Oh ffs. Man Utd. Again. Away. FFS.
“Awful draw,” added a third.
This fan said: “You gotta be kidding me.”
Another stated: “FA Cup draws against teams in your own league are so dead.
“I swear its scripted,” said another.
When is the FA Cup Fourth Round?
Leicester will play their FA Cup Fourth Round fixture on the weekend of 8 February 2025.
As the TV broadcasters have yet to decide which games will be aired live, there is a chance that the date could be moved.
The Foxes won’t have to worry about any Premier League games being rescheduled either as no league fixtures were pencilled in for that weekend.
Additionally, if the game ends in a draw after 90 minutes they will go straight to extra time after replays were scrapped.
