Manchester City will travel to Tottenham in the FA Cup fourth round.

The holders defeated Huddersfield in the third round but face a much trickier task against Ange Postecoglou's side in the last 32.

Eight-time winners Chelsea will also take on Premier League opposition when they host Aston Villa.

Liverpool have been rewarded for Sunday's 2-0 victory at Arsenal with a home tie against either Championship outfit Norwich or League One side Bristol Rovers.

Elsewhere, Maidstone United — the lowest-ranked team still in the competition — head to Ipswich and non-league Eastleigh could meet Manchester United should they get past Newport County in their third round replay.

United overcame Wigan 2-0 at the DW Stadium this evening.

Fulham's clash with Newcastle and Sheffield United's encounter with Brighton are among the other all-Premier League ties.

West Ham will need to ensure they do not slip up in their replay against Bristol City to tee up a tie with either Nottingham Forest or Blackpool.

Luton, meanwhile, will travel to Crystal Palace or Everton if they can topple Bolton after their goalless stalemate with the Trotters on Sunday.

Up for the Cup

Pep Guardiola and Ange Postecoglou share a mutual respect

City moved a step closer to clinching their Treble last season after defeating rivals United in the Wembley showpiece but will face a stern test of their credentials this time around when they head to North London.

Publicidad

Pedro Porro's stunner against Burnley booked Spurs' place in the next round and Postecoglou's men will be eager to get one over the Citizens.

Spurs have not lifted the FA Cup since 1991 and are without a piece of silverware since their 2008 triumph in the EFL Cup.

The clash will follow both teams' winter break, with all ties taking place January 27-28.
