Baggies drawn against giant killers in Cup

Barnsley have been rewarded for their shock fifth-round victory over Liverpool with a home tie against Chelsea. The Tykes beat Liverpool 2-1 at Anfield and now take on Chelsea at Oakwell after Avram Grant's side knocked out Huddersfield in the last 16.

Manchester United have again been drawn against Premiership opposition and will face Portsmouth at Old Trafford.
