Colchester United could find themselves travelling to Ewood Park to take on Premiership side Blackburn Rovers in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

After disposing of Hull City with an impressive 2-0 away win at the weekend, Phil Parkinson's men were today drawn against the winners of a third round replay between Blackburn and Cardiff City.

Being drawn as the away side will not unduly worry the U's, who have shown better form away from Layer Road in recent weeks.

The game is scheduled for Saturday, January 29.
