The Emirates FA Cup fifth round draw took place on Monday evening, live on the BBC’s One Show.
The draw was made by Ruud Gullit, who coached Chelsea to the Cup in 1997, and former Leicester City and Blackburn Rovers player Robbie Savage.
And Gullit picked his former club out at home, with Chelsea playing Championships side Hull City at Stamford Bridge.
There will also be a repeat of the 2013 Cup Final when Wigan Athletic beat Manchester City at Wembley in one of the biggest Cup Final upsets of all time, with the two north-west clubs set to meet at the DW Stadium.
Our fifth round ties will take place on across the weekend of 17-18 February 2018 and winning clubs will receive £180,000 from the FA Cup prize fund.
