FA Cup fourth round TV picks: Man United, Liverpool, and Tottenham selected.

Television choices for the FA Cup fourth round weekend have been confirmed, with a number of top Premier League sides selected for coverage.

The competitions will take place on the weekend of February 7 to 11, spread over five days and involving 32 teams and 16 matches.

Several of the Premier League's top teams remain involved after an action-packed third round weekend that concluded just days ago, with Manchester City and Liverpool among the favorites to lift the trophy at the end of the season.

Manchester United, meanwhile, will also be hoping for success as defending champions after beating Arsenal on penalties in the last round.

They have been drawn against Leicester in a match that sees Rudd van Nistelrooy make a quick return to Old Trafford after leaving his role as assistant manager at United before taking charge of the Foxes earlier this season.

That match will be shown live on ITV on Friday, February 7, starting the weekend before Manchester City start Saturday's action.

They will travel to Brisbane Road to take on League One Leyton Orient, with the match set to be shown on the BBC. Leeds vs Millwall will not be broadcast, but will also start at 12.15pm.

Six matches will be shown during the 3pm blackout, including Everton vs Bournemouth, Coventry vs Ipswich and Wigan vs Fulham.

The other three games at that time are Preston vs Wycombe, Southampton vs Burnley and Stoke vs Cardiff.

Two more matches will be shown live on Saturday evening, with Birmingham taking on Newcastle at 5.45pm on BBC and Brighton hosting Chelsea at 8pm on ITV.

On Sunday, Blackburn will take on Wigan on BBC iPlayer at 12.30pm, Plymouth host Liverpool at 3pm on ITV, and Aston Villa versus Tottenham at 5.35pm on BBC.

On Monday evening, Crystal Palace travel to Doncaster at 7.45pm on BBC iPlayer, while Nottingham Forest play Exeter on Tuesday, February 11 at 8pm on ITV.

Those who win will progress to the fifth round on the first weekend of March, with the final at Wembley on May 17.
