What is at stake?

Both clubs are enjoying strong league seasons, with Sheffield United and Wrexham currently sitting second in the EFL Championship and National League respectively.

While promotion will be the priority for both sides, each will want to prolong their cup run by hosting Harry Kane et al in the fifth round.

It was Ireland defender John Egan whose late equaliser denied Wrexham a famous victory in the first game, and the Cork native is expected to captain the Blades once again in the replay.
