Manchester United will travel to Yeovil Town in round four of the FA Cup, while Tottenham Hotspur head to Newport County.

Yeovil Town, the lowest-ranked side still left in the FA Cup, have been handed a home tie against Manchester United in round four of the competition.

The League Two outfit overcome Bradford City 2-0 on Saturday afternoon to keep their dream alive and will now welcome the 12-time winners to Huish Park later this month.

There is also a plum tie for fellow fourth-tier outfit Newport County, whose reward for beating Leeds United is another home encounter against big boys Tottenham Hotspur.

Elsewhere in the fourth-round draw, Liverpool have been drawn at home to West Bromwich Albion, while Chelsea - who first face a replay against Norwich City - face the prospect of hosting Newcastle United.

Runaway Premier League leaders Manchester City will head to either Cardiff City or Mansfield Town, meanwhile, with the two sides facing off for a second time next week following their goalless draw at the weekend.

Holders Arsenal will play no further part in the competition due to their shock defeat at Nottingham Forest, who head to fellow Championship club Hull City for a place in the next round.
