The game will take place on Saturday, February 14, unless it is moved for TV coverage.

Reading overcame Cardiff City 2-1 in South Wales on Saturday thanks to goals from Oliver Norwood and Hal Robson-Kanu.

Many Reading fans were hoping for either a glamour tie at a Premier League side or a winnable home fixture, with the trip to Derby somewhere in between.

But Steve Clarke has a fantastic record in the FA Cup and his side have already won away from home at Championship opposition twice in this cup run, so the Royals will head to Derby in confident fashion.

Reading are back in Championship action tomorrow night when they travel to Millwall.
