Aston Villa v Man Utd is the tie of the round, with both teams likely to give the game a good go. It is a repeat of the game last year in this round, where a late Ole Gunnar Solskjaer strike put the unlucky Villa out.
Arsenal and Chelsea face lower league opposition in the shape of Burnley and QPR respectively, where QPR can expect to put up more of a fight against a weakened Chelsea side, whilst Burnley are likely to face a young Arsenal team.
Liverpool face Luton and should progress easily with their Premiership challenge falling away.
Some interesting all-Premiership ties include Sunderland v Wigan, Tottenham v Reading and West Ham v Manchester City.
