The Magpies beat Sunderland 3-0 in Saturday's third round Tyne-Wear derby at the Stadium of Light, with a Dan Ballard own goal and a brace from Alexander Isak wrapping up a memorable win for United over their local rivals.

And their reward is a game against fellow Premier League side Fulham at Craven Cottage, as Eddie Howe's men - who were ball number 15, the very last team to be drawn, in Monday night's draw - look to progress to the fifth round for the first time since the 2019/20 campaign.

Fourth round ties are set to take place over the weekend of Saturday, 27th January. A confirmed date for the match and any further details regarding the fixture will be announced in due course.
