Watch Derby County vs Watford Live StreamingBut while many of the country's top teams have paid the FA Cup less than due attention this season, the holders of the trophy insist it is still a major competition in their eyes.
"The FA Cup is massive," said Wilkins. "Thinking back to last May and the joy we experienced in the dressing room at Wembley. These guys play this game to win trophies and we want to win the trophy badly.
"We will play against a Stoke side who have had a fantastic season up to now. They play with a lot of quality.
"Full credit to Stoke because we are in for a very tough game. What Tony Pulis has done is quite exceptional. He has been able to blend two ways of playing. They have played with a lot of style at times.
"We will have to defend very bravely when the long throws and the set-pieces come in but they are part and parcel of the game and we have to be up for it."
