FA CUP: Sheffield United in Yorkshire derby
Sheffield United will play Yorkshire rivals and Premier League opponents Hull City in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Blades manager Kevin Blackwell will look forward at locking horns with Phil Brown.
And he will also be grateful the clash is at Bramall Lane.
Doncaster Rovers – if they upset the bookies and win a fourth round replay at Aston Villa – face the massive task of taking on Everton or Liverpool on Merseyside.
United beat Charlton Athletic 2-1 to earn their spot in the draw, while Hull saw off Millwall.
Hull have surprised many pundits by holding their own in the top flight; they are in ninth.
They have just splashed 5million on Jimmy Bullard, from Fulham.
Meanwhile, Rovers can look forward to a major pay-day if they can make it to the north west.
This afternoon bookies placed Doncaster at 1,000 to one to lift the trophy!
The ties take place February 14 and 15.
Full draw:
Sheffield United v Hull
Watford v Chelsea
West Ham v Middlesbrough
Sunderland or Blackburn v Coventry
Derby or Nottingham Forest v Manchester United
Swansea v Fulham
Liverpool or Everton v Doncaster or Aston Villa
Cardiff or Arsenal v West Brom or Burnley
