Liverpool P-P Arsenal: Ground staff continue preparations at Anfield, although the game is in doubt due to the conditions

And it is no real surprise when the match officials decide to postpone the tie after an inspection at 1845 GMT

For the managers, the decision adds to their fixture congestion at an already busy time of the season

Charlton 0-1 Wycombe: In London, the weather is fine as the Addicks look to forget their poor league form for the evening

But it is the League Two side who make the early running with Jermaine Easter forcing Scott Carson into a good save

Easter is proving a real handful for the home defence and he narrowly drags a shot wide from close range

But the striker's endeavour is rewarded when he fires the Chairboys into the lead with a 20-yard strike on 35 minutes

Charlton fail to muster a single shot on target in the first-half and they could follow Fulham to fall to Wycombe in the cup

The Addicks come out with more purpose after the break, but Marcus Bent wastes a good opportunity to level the tie

And Amdy Faye wastes the home side's best chance to equalise when he scuffs a shot from Darren Bent's cutback

Charlton boss Les Reed throws on Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and plays three up front in an effort to force extra-time

But the Wycombe defence holds firm and they become the first side into the draw for the semi-finals
