Chelsea will travel to Championship side Luton Town in the FA Cup fifth round, while Manchester City have been paired alongside Peterborough United.

Chelsea have been provided with a trip to Championship side Luton Town in the FA Cup fifth round draw.

The Blues needed extra time to get the better of Peterborough United on Saturday afternoon, Marcos Alonso scoring the decisive goal in the 105th minute before Kepa Arrizabalaga saved a late penalty.

The Premier League giants have been rewarded for that win with a trip to face in-form Luton, who comfortably defeated Cambridge United later in the day.

Top-flight leaders Manchester City will travel to Peterborough United, while Liverpool will meet Norwich City if they can overcome Cardiff City.

Tottenham Hotspur are another Premier League outfit on their travels to a Championship club with a meeting against Middlesbrough standing in their way.

After dramatically overcoming Kidderminster Harriers, West Ham United will now make the relatively short trip to face Southampton.

Holders Leicester City will play host to Huddersfield Town if they can get the better of Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
