The fourth-round draw has spoiled us somewhat, with the best two teams in the country going head to head on Friday, before Wrexham aim to bring the magic to the FA Cup…

For Pep Guardiola, it’s rather more simple. The City boss has a far stronger squad at his disposal and for him to field a weakened team would involve a wholly unnecessary volume of changes to his XI, especially given the opportunity to strike a blow, albeit relatively minor, in the title race. Sheffield United’s trip to the National League leaders absolutely reeks of upset. But, of course, Wrexham aren’t your standard non-league minnows these days. Not since they were bought by a couple of Hollywood stars who, contrary to initial scepticism, have barely put a foot wrong since taking ownership almost two years ago.
The Reds have stopped the rot somewhat in the meantime, easing through a cup replay at Wolves before a goalless stalemate with Chelsea that served to highlight why both clubs are languishing in mid-table. Which is something of an improvement as the last time they were on the south coast, they played like relegation fodder.
Surely the Seagulls won’t be allowed to pillage Liverpool’s engine room as they did a fortnight ago? The gaping hole in Liverpool’s midfield has been obvious all season and it doesn’t look likely to be filled before the transfer deadline, so Klopp is having to mend and make do. Fabinho and Jordan Henderson found themselves on the bench for the visit of Chelsea last week.
Holden is in the process of turning the Addicks around, which was necessary amid a toxic atmosphere at The Valley prior to his arrival. Now, though, they are on a run of three wins to begin a push for the play-offs.
