From the source

League Two side Fleetwood Town will face Everton or Newcastle United at Highbury in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup. The lowest-ranked side left in the competition have already made history by reaching the last eight after they stunned Premier League champions Arsenal on penalties on Tuesday.

They will have to wait to find out their next opponents, with Everton hosting Newcastle at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the final match of the fourth round on Thursday.

Holders Manchester City will host the only other non-Premier League side - Bradford City - at Etihad Stadium after they needed penalties to get past Brighton in round four.
