EFL Cup holders Manchester United have been drawn away at Swansea City in the fourth round of the competition.

The Red Devils claimed a 4-1 win over Championship outfit Burton Albion in Wednesday night's third-round clash at Old Trafford to remain in with a chance of retaining the trophy.

Paul Clement's Swans, meanwhile, saw off Reading on Tuesday night as goals from Alfie Mawson and Jordan Ayew gave the Welsh side a 2-0 win at the Madejski Stadium.

The encounter at the Liberty Stadium will pit two recent winners of the competition up against each other, Man United beating Southampton 3-2 in the final last year and Swansea overcoming Bradford City 5-0 in the 2013 showpiece at Wembley Stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, have been handed a London derby as they will face West Ham United at Wembley, Spurs' temporary home this season.

In the fourth round's only other all-Premier League tie, Antonio Conte's Chelsea will take on Ronald Koeman's Everton at Stamford Bridge.

The remaining five fixtures will see top-flight sides take on Championship outfits, with Bristol City handed a home tie with Crystal Palace.
