Chelsea face derby in capital one cup

Chelsea will face in-form Championship side Derby County in the quarterfinals of the Capital One Cup, while Liverpool also get second-tier opposition as they travel to Bournemouth.

Tottenham Hotspur take on Newcastle United in the only all-Premier League clash of the round, while League One side Sheffield United have secured a home tie with Southampton.

Spurs secured a berth in the quarterfinals with a 2-0 win over Brighton at White Hart Lane on Wednesday evening, while Newcastle knocked out holders Manchester City with an impressive 2-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium.

Ronald Koeman's Saints left it late to progress on Wednesday: Graziano Pelle netted an 89th-minute winner as they edged Stoke 3-2 after the Potters had fought back to level from two goals down at the Britannia, and their reward is a trip to the Blades.
