And Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, Brighton and Fulham will be among the Premier League teams looking to build on good league form by booking a rare date at Wembley come April.
Cardiff, Plymouth and Millwall are some of the second-tier sides left in the competition, with at least one Championship side guaranteed in the last eight as Burnley face Preston.
