FA Youth Cup holders Chelsea could face the winners of next week's fifth round tie between Sunderland and Newcastle United.
Dave Watson's Magpies, who have knocked out Millwall and Middlesbrough so far, travel to the Stadium of Light on Wednesday, 4th February for a 7pm kick-off.
The draw for the quarter-finals took place on Friday and paired the winners of that tie against the victors between Chelsea and Swansea City, who play each other on Wednesday night.
United or Sunderland would be at home - meaning a potential repeat of last season's quarter-final clash at St. James' Park which saw the Magpies beaten 3-2 after extra time.
The full quarter-final draw is:
Southampton or Leicester City v Liverpool or Birmingham City
Sunderland or Newcastle United v Chelsea or Swansea City
Manchester City or Stoke City v Arsenal or Crewe Alexandra
Nottingham Forest or Burnley v Tottenham Hotspur or Manchester United
