Liverpool will hope to book its place in the fourth round of the FA Cup shortly with its home tie against Accrington Stanley coming up at Anfield for Arne Slot. But when is the draw scheduled to take place?

The fourth round draw will be made tomorrow (Sunday, January 12), following the conclusion of the game between Arsenal and Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium. That match kicks off at 3pm UK time (10am ET) so the draw should begin shortly after 5pm UK time (12pm ET) assuming that it doesn't go to extra-time and penalties.

The draw will be presented by Kelly Somers and will be made by Martin Keown and Mark Schwarzer. In the UK, it will be broadcast live as part of BBC One's coverage of the Arsenal vs Manchester United game. It will also be streamed live across the official FA Cup social media channels.

Cardiff City, Fulham, Everton, Wycombe and Aston Villa have already booked their place in the fourth round. Later today, there are 19 ties taking place, including Liverpool vs Accrington, Chelsea vs Morecambe, and Manchester City vs Salford City.

Should Liverpool progress, it will be ball number 10 in the draw for round four. The ties will take place around the weekend of Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 February. There are no Premier League matches that weekend but Liverpool has Spurs in the second leg of its Carabao Cup semi-final the previous Thursday.

"I think every team that plays against us, it's a special occasion for every team we face — but especially for a lower-league team," Slot said during his press conference. "They will be all up for it, they've lived towards this game for many weeks probably, nine out of 10 times all players are fit and there's no one suspended.

"The challenge is always to bring the best out of ourselves. Everybody could understand that if you go to a Champions League final, everybody is completely hyped up and ready — and that is for them tomorrow, it is going to feel like a Champions League final. We have to be aware of that.

"Nine out of 10 times, the first 25 minutes or half hour is the most difficult part of the game because they will still be very intense. It is up to us to be ready for them wanting to play the best game of their lives and that is what we have to do as well."
