Northampton's reward if they can get past MK Dons in a third-round replay will be a visit from Chelsea while FA Cup holders Arsenal must entertain Burnley in the fourth round.

Chelsea are not the only Barclays Premier League giant taking to the road as Manchester United were sent to Derby and Manchester City told to pitch up at either Sky Bet League Two club Wycombe or Aston Villa, who drew 1-1 on Saturday.

Liverpool were held to a 2-2 draw by Exeter and the winner of that replay will entertain West Ham. Vanarama National League outfit Eastleigh, the lowest ranked team left in the competition, will host Championship side Leeds if they can see off Bolton at Ten Acres.
