The FA Cup is known to serve up magic on the pitch.

But away from the turf, the competition provides clubs - the smaller ones, especially - with the chance of a huge payday.

For every round reached, the prize money goes up, so a decent run can be lucrative.

In addition, the TV money and gate receipts are a welcome boost, too.

This season, League Two side Coventry have made it to the last 16, where they travel to Brighton.

League One strugglers Rochdale entertain Tottenham at home.

At the very least, both sides will net £18,000 from the prize pot.

Wigan, flying high in League One, face Pep Guadiola's formidable Manchester City side in a repeat of the 2013 final.
