Arsenal vs Burnley
Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin insisted that the Gunners are looking to win the Premier league and cup double this season.
The Gunners knocked out Sunderland in the 3rd round of the FA Cup, and face Burnley in the next round. The North Londoners are looking to create a history by winning the FA Cup for the third consecutive seasons.
Arsenal made their league double over Burnley in 2014/15 – the last and the only time The Clarets participated in the top-tier of the English football.
Both the sides met in FA Cup in 2009 – a game Arsenal won 3-0 – where former player Carlos Vela scored this outstanding goal.

Burnley, however, won 2-0 against Arsenal in 2008 in the League Cup, and they will hoping to produce a similar result again.
Oxford vs Newport County or Blackburn
One of the highlights of the 3rd Round FA Cup tie was Oxford’s 3-2 win over Swansea City. The Swans were cruising 2-0 at half time, when the fightback from Oxford began, resulting in a dramatic cup upset.
The football league two side can go further in the competition, should they win against fellow League Two side Newport or Championship strugglers Blackburn.
What gives them an extra advantage for the upcoming tie is their impressive home record.
Kassam Stadium has turned into a fortress ground for them this season, as Oxford have just lost once in their last 21 home games in all competitions, per Squawaka Football.
Derby vs United
The Championship side are flying high in the league and can pose problems to United, who scraped through the third round with a late penalty goal coming from Wayne Rooney against League One side Sheffield United.
