The fourth round draw for the 2007/08 season's F.A. Cup has taken place, and should Tranmere Rovers beat Hereford United of League Two in their replay a week on Wednesday, they will set up a tie with Championship side Cardiff City, the only non-English team to win the F.A. Cup.

Tranmere Rovers or Hereford United will play Cardiff City in the Fourth Round of this season's F.A. Cup competition.

However, Cardiff won't know their opponents until Wednesday 16th January, when Tranmere travel to Hereford to take on the Bulls at Edgar Street in their Third Round replay.

The game will be played on the weekend of January 26th, meaning that should the game be switched to a Sunday, Rovers, should they beat Hereford, would end up playing on St. Steve's Day - the day they famously knocked Everton out of the F.A. Cup at Goodison in 2001.

Other notable fixtures include Manchester United vs. Tottenham or Reading, Sheffield United vs. West Ham or Man City, Arsenal vs. Stoke or Newcastle, Wigan vs. Chelsea and Luton or Liverpool vs. Swansea City or Havant and Waterlooville.
