Are there FA Cup replays this season?

The FA stipulated that there will be mandatory replays for games that end in draws up to and including the Fourth Round in 2023/24.

Widespread reports in October suggested that plans to scrap replays in the Third and Fourth Rounds could be introduced as early as the 2024/25 season.
