Plymouth's reward for knocking out Liverpool is a trip to Premier League champions Manchester City in the FA Cup fifth round, while holders Manchester United will play Fulham.
Plymouth, who are bottom of the Championship, earned a famous fourth-round win against Premier League leaders Liverpool at the weekend.
They now face a trip to City, after Pep Guardiola's side overcame a first-half scare to beat Leyton Orient 2-1.
Man Utd have been drawn at home to Fulham. United beat Leicester 2-1 in controversial circumstances, with Harry Maguire appearing to be in an offside position as he headed in Friday's stoppage-time winner at Old Trafford.
There was no VAR in operation during the fourth-round ties over the weekend, but the technology will come into play from the next round onwards.
Having won 2-0 at Everton on Saturday, Bournemouth will face more Premier League opposition with Wolves due at the Vitality Stadium.
Brighton, who came from behind to beat Chelsea 2-1, also have another tough assignment as they are away to Carabao Cup finalists Newcastle.
Cardiff, who needed penalties to get past Stoke, are away to Aston Villa - who hung on to knock out Tottenham 2-1 on Sunday.
Crystal Palace will be at home to south London rivals Millwall after beating Doncaster 2-0 on Monday, while the winners of Tuesday's tie between Exeter and Nottingham Forest will be at home to Ipswich.
There will also be an all-Championship tie in the north-west with Preston due to host Burnley.
FA Cup fifth-round ties will be played around the first weekend of March, with the Football Association to confirm the full schedule in due course.
