The FA Cup returns this weekend for another scintillating instalment of action as the remaining sides battle it out for a place in the fifth round.

It also means a return to live football on free-to-air TV, with the BBC resuming its historic duty as one of the competition's leading broadcasters, hosting a number of this weekend's biggest ties, with Manchester City, Newcastle, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur all set to feature across the channel.

So, we're all set for an absorbing few days, and you can take it all in with a star-studded lineup of presenters and pundits, all kicking off on Saturday.

Who are the commentators and pundits on the BBC this weekend?

Seven-time champions Manchester City face a trip down south to League One promotion chasers Leyton Orient for Saturday's early kick-off, looking to bounce back from a devastating defeat at the Emirates last Sunday.

Alex Scott has been tasked with presenting the programme, joined by former Brighton striker Glenn Murray and the popular Micah Richards as pundits covering all the analysis and talking points.

Who are the commentators and pundits for Birmingham City vs Newcastle

High-flying Birmingham City play host to Newcastle United in the Saturday evening kick-off on BBC One, with the Magpies having already secured their spot in one domestic cup final this season.

A commentary team of Guy Mowbray and Matthew Upson will be on hand to guide viewers through each kick of what promises to be an exciting affair.
