• Giantkillers Newport travel to Middlesbrough
• Barnet v Brentford, AFC Wimbledon v West Ham
Arsenal will face Manchester United in the FA Cup fourth round while Newport have been rewarded for their exploits against Leicester City with a trip to Middlesbrough. Fellow giantkillers Oldham and Barnet were drawn to face Doncaster and Brentford respectively, while AFC Wimbledon, who have reached the fourth round for the first time in the new club’s history, will take on West Ham.
Newport, beaten at this stage of the competition at Wembley last season by Tottenham after a replay, will nonetheless fancy their chances of reaching the fifth round despite a tough away draw against Tony Pulis’ side while Barnet, who share their “Bees” nickname with Brentford, will entertain their Championship opponents at The Hive. Elsewhere Accrington Stanley will face Derby or Southampton while Millwall entertain Everton, Manchester City take on Burnley and Crystal Palace entertain Tottenham in another all-Premier League tie.
