What TV channel is the FA Cup Fifth Round draw on? Newcastle United ball number and streaming details

Newcastle United’s win over Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday night secured their safe passage to the Fifth Round of the FA Cup for the first time in four years. A first-half strike from Sean Longstaff put the Magpies ahead at the break before Dan Burn on the hour doubled their lead.

It was a solid performance from Howe’s side and one that they will hope can kickstart their league campaign again ahead of their trip to Villa Park on Tuesday night. However, before then, Newcastle will discover who their next FA Cup opponents will be.

Having been drawn against Premier League opposition in four of five domestic cup ties this season - and being picked to face local rivals Sunderland in the other - they may be hoping for a slightly easier tie in the next round. But with just 16 teams left in the competition, there is certainly no guarantee of that.
