WOLVERHAMPTON Wanderers were today drawn away at Highbury in the Fourth round of the FA Cup. It's the third time Wolves will play Arsenal in the FA Cup since Arsene Wenger has been at the club.

Denis Irwin and Neville Southall today picked a tough tie away at Highbury for Wolves in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Wolves have played Arsenal twice before in the FA Cup in recent years, the first being an FA Cup Semi Final at Aston Villa's Villa Park.

Arsenal won 1-0 on that day, with Wreh scoring the only goal of the day after just twelve minutes.

Arsenal then visited Molineux in 1999 and again The Gunners came out on top. Harvard Flo leveled after Overmars had given the visitors the lead and then Bergkamp scored in the dieing minutes to win the tie.

Wolves faced Arsenal three times last season, with Arsenal winning all three games. Under-strength Arsenal and an under-strength Wolves side were fielded in the Carling Cup ending in a 5-1 win for the Champions.

In the two league games last season Arsenal beat Wolves 3-0 at Highbury on Boxing Day before Toure and Henry cancelled out Vio Ganea's (pictured) equaliser after Bergkamp had given unbeaten Arsenal the lead.

Ticket details are yet to be announced.
