Across the weekend, many former Irish League stars or Northern Ireland internationals will take to the pitch in one of the world’s most famous competitions.
Some of the biggest ties see Liverpool hosting Accrington Stanley at Anfield, Chelsea welcoming Morecambe to Stamford Bridge and Tamworth take on Premier League opposition in Tottenham Hotspur.
Here’s every local representative to watch out for over the weekend.
5. Conor Bradley (Liverpool)

8. Ruairi McConville (Brighton & Hove Albion)
Ruairi McConville has been involved in Premier League matchday squads with Brighton this season without getting off the bench and perhaps the FA Cup tie away to Norwich City could be the perfect time to give the young Northern Ireland international, who came through the ranks at Linfield, his first minutes.
