Hello and welcome to the live blog covering the FA Cup fourth round draw, which both Newcastle United are in the hat for.
The Magpies are ball number 27 in tonight's draw. Other notable ball numbers to look out for are Middlesbrough (19), Shola Ameobi's Notts County (13) and the lowest ranked team in the competition Yeovil (11).
Manchester City (23), Manchester United (15), Tottenham (18) and Liverpool (40), are the ball numbers to avoid.
The Magpies will be hoping to get further than they did last year when they went out in the fourth round. Rafa Benitez was the first Toon manager to guide United to the fourth round since 2012 when they beat Blackburn Rovers.
Stick with us as we bring you the build up, the draw and reaction to the fixtures which will take place on the weekend beginning Saturday 27th January.
