Trip to Aston Villa in the FA Cup fourth round

We have been drawn away to Aston Villa in the fourth round of this season's Emirates FA Cup.

The fourth round of the competition will take place over the weekend of 8 February - the exact date and kick-off time of our tie, plus ticket information, will be confirmed in due course.

We progressed to the fourth round of the competition on Sunday afternoon with a 3-0 win over non-league Tamworth.

Aston Villa earned their place in round four with a 2-1 comeback win over West Ham United on Friday night at Villa Park.

This will be the first time we have faced Villa in the competition since January, 2017, when we defeated the Villans 2-0 at White Hart Lane in the third round of the cup - a game in which both Ben Davies and Heung-Min Son scored for us.

Highlights | Our last meeting with Villa in the FA Cup

We have been drawn against them twice in the fourth round previously, losing 1-0 in 1920 before edging them a year later by the same scoreline, with both games hosted at the Lane.

In total we have faced the Birmingham-based side on 11 occasions in the FA Cup, prevailing seven times, including en route to lifting the trophy in 1921, 1961, 1962 and 1982.

Of those meetings, we have yet to be defeated in an FA Cup tie with the Villans at Villa Park.

Villa's West Midlands home is also famed for hosting numerous semi-finals in the competition before they were moved to Wembley in 2008. We played in the first semi-final to be hosted there, defeating West Bromwich Albion 4-0 on route to lifting the trophy in 1901.

We then lost there in the 1948, 1953 and 1956 semi-finals, but ran out winners there in 1961, 1982 and 1987
