Arsenal await in FA Cup

AFC Bournemouth will welcome Arsenal to Vitality Stadium in the FA Cup fourth round.

The Cherries were ball number 14 in Monday evening’s draw held at the Emirates Stadium and were drawn to play either the Gunners or Championship-leaders Leeds - whose third-round match took place on Monday evening.

Reiss Nelson struck the only goal of the game after the break to send Arsenal through and set up the tie with the Cherries during the final weekend of the month.

The fixture will take place between Friday 24th and Monday 27th January with Eddie Howe’s squad securing a spot in the fourth round with a well-deserved 4-0 win over Luton Town on Saturday.

A confirmed date and ticket details will be released in due course.
