Sheffield Wednesday will play Stevenage or Reading in their fourth-round tie if they beat Carlisle in their third-round replay, while United will face Championship rivals Preston at Bramall Lane.

United booked their place in the fourth round by beating Ipswich Town 1-0 last weekend, thanks to Nathan Thomas' stunner, but Wednesday must overcome Carlisle in a replay after their 0-0 draw at Brunton Park. The sides meet again a week tomorrow, at Hillsborough.
