Arsenal will face holders Leicester City at the Emirates in the FA Cup fourth round if Mikel Arteta’s men can find their way past Nottingham Forest this evening.
The last time we faced Leicester in the FA Cup we went down on penalties in 2000 having drawn 0-0 in both our home game and the replay. We did beat them a couple of times in the 70s, including on the way to the final in 1971, and in 1935 and 1922.
Fourth round ties will take place across the weekend 4-7 February.

Watching that was painful 🤦♂️😆
One more ball and we could have get it worse!
Yep! Was just thinking that
“but in the end, it doesn’t even matter”
David James draws every big club for a home game (and Tottenham!)
Yet only we have a challenging fixture. Got to fancy ourselves, this young side are gonna be up for the cup!
As soon as I saw that smarmy cunt at Wembley I knew we were going to get shafted.
Thought I’d come here at 4am just to see if there’s any comments like this 🤐😁
Shit draw.
With all the dross left in we get a tough team. Arteta will have to play a strong team.
At least we’re at home.
We did get drawn with Sunderland in the League Cup Quarters – when all the Premier League clubs got drawn with each other.
Win some, lose some.
It’s tough on paper but they’re going through somewhat of an injury crisis (including Vardy and Evans) and have several key players at AFCON (Iheanacho, Amarty, Ndidi).
Shit performance, but this highlights the holes in our squad. When we don’t play the first XI it all breaks down.
Right now, we need a CM urgently to go with Sambi……come on Gini !!
Well, good luck Forest.
Won’t need to worry about that
Fuck me, that was as bad as I’ve ever seen.
Don’t be melodramatic – that wasn’t even the worst this season.
I’m sure we would’ve beaten Leicester.
