Liverpool have been drawn to face either Bristol City or Shrewsbury Town in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Bristol City and Shrewsbury will be facing each other in a third round replay later this month to determine who will host the Reds in the next round.
This comes after Liverpool beat rivals Everton 1-0 in the third round thanks to a superb goal from young midfielder Curtis Jones.

READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT
After months and months of Manchester City drawing lower league opposition in the cups, Liverpool have finally been handed a slice of luck. With all due respect to Bristol City and Shrewsbury, they are not Premier League sides and are likely to offer less of a problem to Liverpool than a top-flight team – although that does depend on the team Liverpool decide to put out.
Klopp has used the cup competitions to hand young players chances in the last two seasons and they made him proud against Everton with a 1-0 win. Hopefully he will use this fourth round tie to give the likes of Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones more minutes to show that they can have a future in the first-team at Anfield.
