League One leaders Wigan will hope history can repeat itself after landing an FA Cup rematch with City in the fifth round draw.

The DW Stadium clash will stir memories of the 2013 final when Wigan - then sliding out of the Premier League - snatched a stunning late winner through a Ben Watson header.

In the pick of the other ties, new Swansea boss Carlos Carvalhal will face a quick return to his former club Sheffield Wednesday provided the Swans beat League Two Notts County in a replay.

United will travel to either Huddersfield or Birmingham, who battled out a 1-1 draw at the weekend and face a replay at St Andrew's.

Chelsea face Hull at Stamford Bridge while Millwall could face Tottenham in a repeat of last season's quarter-final provided they win replays over Rochdale and Newport respectively.

West Brom and Southampton meet in an all-Premier League clash, Sheffield United travel to Leicester, while Brighton face 1987 winners Coventry
