MANCHESTER UNITED landed an astonishing 12th home cup tie in a row - as Newcastle were 'rewarded' for beating Man City with a Carabao Cup trip to Old Trafford.

That's because League Two Mansfield will face L1 Port Vale at home.
Everton were drawn to meet Burnley at Goodison Park after a hard-grafting 2-1 triumph at Aston Villa.
And after walloping Championship rivals Cardiff 5-2, Blackburn will go to Chelsea.
