Leeds may potentially encounter Chelsea in the same stage if the London club triumph over Luton on Thursday.

Fleetwood, the sole fourth-tier participant remaining in the tournament, will meet Sheffield United.

The final two spots will be determined on Thursday, when Chelsea faces Luton at 19:30 BST and Fulham competes against AFC Wimbledon at 20:00 BST. The complete draw includes Crystal Palace versus Middlesbrough, Manchester United facing Brighton, Manchester City taking on Norwich, Sunderland playing against Hull, Ipswich competing with Arsenal, Coventry against Aston Villa, Bournemouth versus Lincoln, Liverpool confronting Tottenham, Chelsea or Luton versus Leeds, Millwall versus Newcastle, and Fleetwood pitted against Sheffield United.
