The draw for the FA Cup fifth round has been simulated ahead of Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City learning their opponents.

The action kicked off on Friday when Chelsea made easy work of manager Liam Rosenior's former side Hull City and Wrexham beat fellow Championship side Ipswich at the Racecourse Ground.
