Carling Cup Quarter-finals: Reds Face Hammers

United will play away at West Ham in the Carling Cup quarter-finals.

Following Saturday's draw, the cup holders will travel to Upton Park the week commencing 29 November.

It'll be only the second meeting between the two sides in the League Cup. The first and only clash took place in October 1985 with United running out 1-0 winners at Old Trafford.

This season, victories away at Scunthorpe United in round three and at home to Wolves last Tuesday have ensured United's progression to the last eight.

After coming from behind to thump Scunthorpe 5-2 at Glanford Park, the Reds had Javier Hernandez to thank against Mick McCarthy's men last Tuesday after he struck a last-minute winner following a battling display from Wolves at Old Trafford.

Elsewhere in the draw, Arsenal will host Wigan, Aston Villa travel to Birmingham and Ipswich entertain West Brom.
