Blackpool & Fleetwood FA Cup fourth round opponents revealed

    Blackpool have once again drawn Premier League opposition in the Emirates FA Cup, with the Seasiders travelling to Southampton in the fourth round.

    Having recorded a 4-1 victory over Nottingham Forest to reach this stage, Michael Appleton's side will now head to St Mary's for a tie that will be played on the weekend of 27-30 January.

    Due to Pool's continued participation in the tournament, the team's league fixture away to Blackburn Rovers on Saturday 28 January must now be rearranged.

    Meanwhile, Fleetwood Town have been drawn against Sky Bet League One side Sheffield Wednesday.

    Following Town's 2-1 win over Championship side, Queens Park Rangers, the fixture will be played at Hillsborough, on the same weekend.
