OXFORD United will be at home in the Emirates FA Cup fourth round later this month - but they must wait to discover their opponents.

Michael Appleton's side have been paired with the winners of the replay between Newcastle United and Birmingham City, which will be played next Wednesday.

The U's beat Birmingham 1-0 in the EFL Cup first round last August, but they have not met Newcastle since May 1993.

The fourth round game at the Kassam Stadium will be played over the weekend of January 27-30.

United reached the last-32 with a 3-2 win at Sky Bet Championship side Rotherham United on Saturday.

They beat Merstham and Macclesfield Town earlier in the competition.

It is the second successive season Appleton's side have made it to the fourth round, but they will be hoping to fare better than 12 months ago, when Blackburn Rovers won 3-0 at the Kassam Stadium.
