Leeds United's FA Cup Fourth Round tie chosen by broadcasters as Whites yet to discover opponent
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Whites will discover which of the two lower league sides they will face on Tuesday, January 24 after their initial Third Round Replay was postponed due to a frozen pitch. As has become customary for Leeds in recent seasons, the team will be playing away in the FA Cup Fourth Round, meaning a trip to the Wham Stadium or Meadow Park is on the cards, depending on the outcome of Tuesday night’s result.
BBC One will show the Fourth Round tie live at 12:30pm on Saturday, January 28. Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Arsenal’s all-Premier League clash and Brighton’s fixture versus Liverpool or Wolves, have also been chosen for broadcast next weekend.

Each club involved in these selected fixtures will receive an additional £110,000 in broadcast revenue.
