Not too many upsets this round but there is Bristol City, Plymouth and Blackpool all in the draw. But this should mean more all-Premiership ties and a good draw!

I'm hoping we can get the easy route through, maybe Plymouth or someone like Watford at home :)

Here's the draw

Chelsea v Blackpool or Norwich
Watford v Ipswich
Preston v Man City
Plymouth v Derby County
Man Utd v Reading
Arsenal or Bolton v Blackburn
Bristol City or Middlesbrough v West Bromwich Albion
Fulham v Tottenham

Tbh its another shit draw, at least there will be one Championship side in the quater final. Reading will be tough as they proved in both Premiership games. Chelsea get the easy draw, surprisingly!

Won't be easy v West Brom, flying high in the Championship and scoring loads and not conceding many. They're strikers are scoring alot of goals and they demolished Wolves away yesterday 0-3. Being at home will give you the advantage though.

Really i can't say what we will be like. We are very in-consistant at any time. Cups just make this uncertancy even more. Hopefully we can beat thm though, I just hope the crowd comes to the riverside. I would love it for the club to play the final at the new Wembley!!!

Preston v Man City will be a cracking derby match, probably tie of the round. It's a shame that Plymouth didn't get a big club, although good news for the lowest side in the competition if they beat Norwich having the chance to play the champions
