Mansfield Town vs Arsenal: FA Cup fifth round preview
Since the Championship and Premier League clubs joined this season’s FA Cup, Nigel Clough’s Mansfield Town have dumped out one of each. Sheffield United and Burnley were beaten on their own turf but they’ll take on Arsenal back at Field Mill.
The Stags are 16th in League One, five points outside the relegation zone and sliding, but their last two FA Cup wins were both against higher opposition and settled inside 90 minutes.
They’re now one game away from a first quarter-final since 1968-69, when Tommy Eggleston’s team were knocked out by his former club, Leicester City, in the last eight.
► How to watch FA Cup live streams from anywhere in 2025/26
Arsenal are forcing their way to the Premier League title and have been among the strongest teams in the Champions League this season, but their FA Cup record since the turn of the century demands success.
The Gunners’ last FA Cup final win came in 2020 at an eerie empty Wembley and that, by Arsenal’s modern standards, was a good long while ago.
Having seen off Portsmouth and Wigan Athletic without breaking a sweat, Mikel Arteta’s men will be confident of fulfilling their status as favourites in today’s fifth round tie.
FourFourTwo’s prediction
Mansfield Town 0-3 Arsenal
When Arsenal have the bit between their teeth, they tend to get the job done. A professional performance is the order of the day.
