Let's recap that draw...

The main talking point from the draw is a heavyweight tie between Newcastle and Manchester City, two of the favourites to win the tournament.

Chelsea against Brighton should be an interesting proposition given the recent history between the two teams, while there could be a giant killing on the horizon as Lincoln welcome West Ham and Salford take on Burnley.
