Tottenham will face London rivals Chelsea in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, while holders Manchester City have been drawn against League One Burton.
Spurs overcame Arsenal in the north London derby on Wednesday, while five-time winners Chelsea defeated Bournemouth.
Pep Guardiola's City saw off Leicester in a penalty shoot-out on Tuesday, with Burton into the last four of the competition for the first time after winning at Middlesbrough.
Television presenter Piers Morgan, an Arsenal supporter, performed the semi-final draw alongside Peter Crouch wearing a Spurs shirt.
The forfeit came after Morgan lost a £1,000 charity bet to former Tottenham striker Crouch on the outcome of Wednesday's match at the Emirates.

Tottenham v Chelsea
Manchester City v Burton
The first legs will be played in the week commencing January 7 and the second legs in week beginning January 21.
