Liverpool sunk deeper into their mid-season rut as Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers claimed a deserved 2-1 FA Cup fourth round victory at Anfield as the competition lived up to its reputation for shocks on Saturday. Garry Thompson then restored their lead seven minutes from time after Tottenham had battled back but Dele Alli equalised and an own goal salvaged a 4-3 victory for Tottenham. There was precious little drama at Stamford Bridge though as Premier League leaders Chelsea beat second tier Brentford 4-0, or at Selhurst Park where Manchester City outclassed Crystal Palace 3-0 in an all Premier League clash. Two other Premier League sides made progress with Middlebrough beating Accrington Stanley 1-0 and Burnley seeing off Bristol City 2-0. League Cup finalists Southampton host Arsenal later on Saturday while holders Manchester United are in action against Wigan Athletic on Sunday.
