Arsenal will face a huge FA Cup fourth-round tie against Manchester City at the Etihad if they beat Oxford United on Monday night.
City thrashed Chelsea 4-0 on Sunday and will now play the Gunners on the weekend of the 28/29 January – if Mikel Arteta’s side can see off League One Oxford.
Elsewhere in the fourth round, former Manchester United midfielder Paul Ince – who won seven major trophies during a six-year spell with the club – will return to Old Trafford as manager of Reading, while Liverpool will travel to Brighton if they win their replay at Wolves following a controversial draw at Anfield on Saturday.
Tottenham – who have not won the FA Cup since 1991 but may feel the draw has opened up given Chelsea’s exit and City’s potential clash with Arsenal – travel to Championship side Preston, while 2021 winners Leicester face a trip to League Two’s Walsall.
Premier League strugglers Southampton have been handed a home tie against Blackpool – who thrashed Nottingham Forest in the third round – and West Ham go to League One side Derby, who are unbeaten in 16 matches.
Stevenage’s reward for stunning Aston Villa is an away tie against Stoke, while Fulham host Sunderland.
Leeds or Cardiff – who played out a dramatic 2-2 draw on Sunday afternoon – have been drawn away to either non-League Boreham Wood or Accrington.
Wrexham will welcome Sheffield United, while Sheffield Wednesday – who beat Newcastle in the third round – host Scott Brown’s Fleetwood.
Either Bristol City or Swansea will host the winner of the replay between Chesterfield and West Brom, while Forest Green or Birmingham – whose third-round tie was postponed – will go to Blackburn.
The winner of Wigan or Grimsby go to Luton, while Ipswich host Vincent Kompany’s Burnley, who currently lead the Championship.
