The draw raises the intriguing possibility of both a London and a Merseyside derby at Wembley, though Spurs must first overcome Owen Coyle's side while Everton face a tough quarter-final replay away to Sunderland.

Tottenham's final-eight clash with Bolton was abandoned on Saturday, after Fabrice Muamba suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch, and it is not yet clear when the match will be replayed.

The semi-finals will be held at Wembley on April 14 and 15.
