Blackburn Rovers will discover their potential opponents for the FA Cup fifth round before facing Wrexham AFC on Monday night.
Jon Dahl Tomasson's side will be the last team to play in the fourth round as they host League Two opposition at Ewood Park. The match has been moved for BBC Wales and there will be 7,000 away fans in the Darwen End.
Rovers will already know what will await them should they progress on the night. That's because the FA Cup fifth-round draw will take place on Sunday.
Coverage will begin from around 2pm ahead of Liverpool's tie against Norwich City on ITV Sport. Rovers/Wrexham will be ball number two. Former Reds defender Glen Johnson will be making the draw.
Should Rovers progress, they will bank 120K and there is a further 225K on offer for progression into the quarter-finals. Tomasson claimed on Thursday that the club has received around £3million in total revenue from cup competitions in the last 18 months.
The fixtures will take place on the week commencing February 26. Rovers currently have a free midweek between facing Norwich City (Feb 24) at home and a trip to Swansea City (March 2).
