Manchester United will host Championship leaders Ipswich Town, and League Two Carlisle will travel to Liverpool.

There were also be another fierce derby as Birmingham travel to Aston Villa, but the North London derby remains the stand-out tie.

Arsene Wenger’s side made the short trip across North London at this stage of the competition five years ago and were victorious after extra time.

Goals from Robbie Keane and Henri Lansbury could not settle the two after ninety minute, but two penalties from Samir Nasri and another from Andrei Arshavin sent The Gunners through.
