Manchester City were handed a trip to Premier League rivals Tottenham in the standout tie of the FA Cup fourth-round draw.
Reigning top-flight champions City have been involved in several classic matches with Spurs in recent years, including a 3-3 draw at Etihad Stadium in December 2023 and a 4-4 draw over two legs of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals in 2019, when Tottenham won on away goals. This latest meeting ended 1-0 to the visitors thanks to Nathan Ake's late winner.
Maidstone United, of the National League South, celebrated reaching the third round for the first time since their reformation in 1992 by winning at home to League One side Stevenage, and their reward was a trip to Championship promotion hopefuls Ipswich Town, where they produced one of the shocks of recent seasons.
Manchester United won 2-0 at League One opponents Wigan Athletic and overcame League Two Newport County despite seeing a 2-0 lead slip in their match in south Wales.
