Manchester City will be facing League One Leyton Orient in the fourth round of the FA Cup following their 6-5 penalty shootout victory over Championship club Derby County after the match ended 1-1 after 90 minutes and extra time.

The O's were due to host the Rams on Saturday evening. However, at lunchtime, the match was postponed after a frozen pitch at Brisbane Road made the surface unplayable.

Unusually, the match was rescheduled for this evening in a bid to avoid the competition's schedule from being delayed by postponements. On Sunday, City were drawn to face Orient away from home which means they will be travelling to Brisbane Road on the weekend of February 8.

On Saturday, February 15 City host Newcastle United who are currently flying under Eddie Howe before Premier League leaders Liverpool are welcomed to the Etihad Stadium the following Sunday. The exact date and kick off time for the FA Cup clash will be announced in due course.
