Wales have three clubs in the
\nfourth round for the first time and will be guaranteed a quarter-finalist after
\nWrexham were drawn at home to Cardiff City.<\/p>\n

Swansea \u2013 who won the
\ncompetition in 2013 \u2013 will host Manchester City.<\/p>\n

The all-Welsh encounter at
\nthe Racecourse next month will be the first meeting in 21 years between Wrexham
\nwho were promoted to the Championship last season and Cardiff who have lost just
\nonce in League One this season after being relegated the other way.<\/p>\n

Former Wales international Malcolm
\nAllen makes Wrexham only marginal favourites.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve got to go
\nWrexham, they’re playing at home obviously that’s going to be an
\nadvantage to them although they haven’t been that great at the racecourse this
\nseason,\u201d said former Newcastle United striker Allen.<\/p>\n

\u201cCardiff
\nflying high, only lost to Bradford last week, went to Burnley, big scalp for
\nthem beating a Premiership team in this cup, so they’ll want to keep that cup
\nrun and I think Brian Barry-Murphy has done really well there. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s had to
\nwork with the youngsters, he\u2019s got a couple of older ones coming back into
\nthe fold now as well so Cardiff will be going up there full of
\nconfidence because of who they’ve just beaten in the cup and also how
\nthey’re doing in the league.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wrexham v Cardiff – who will be favourites in all-Welsh tie?published at 08:25 BST 08:25 BST Image source,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":42222,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-42221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42221"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42221\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
