Hello and welcome to The Independent's live blog for Saturday's FA Cup fourth round ties.

First up, Liverpool face Championship side Wolves fresh from a disappointing end to their EFL Cup run at the semi-final stage. 

The Reds were taken to a replay by League Two Plymouth in the last round and Jurgen Klopp will be desperate to avoid another replay to add to Liverpool's already busy schedule.

The 3pm kick offs see Tottenham face Wycombe, Chelsea take on west London rivals Brentford and Manchester City's visit to Selhurst Park to take on Crystal Palace, among others.

Arsenal travel to EFL Cup finalists Southampton in the day's final tie, which kicks off at 5.30pm.

Harry Winks: How Mauricio Pochettino showed his faith in me from the first moment we metThe IndependentHarry Winks will never forget the first moment he met Mauricio Pochettino. It was July 2014 and Winks, aged 18, was signing his first professional deal at White Hart Lane. He was with his father Gary, his agent, Tottenham academy chief John McDermott and football secretary Rebecca Britain. Then Pochettino walked in. “He came in and shook my hand,” Winks tells the story. “And he said, and I don’t know if he was being truthful or not, ‘I have seen your videos, and I told John to sign you up straightaway.’ I was gobsmacked at the gaffer just saying that.”
