Hull KR will play St Helens at MS3 Craven Park in the fourth round of the Challenge Cup.
It will be their fourth cup meeting in the last eight years.
In 2011, Saints beat the Robins 56-6 at the quarter-final stage at Widnes. In the 2008 quarter final, Saints beat Rovers 24-18 at MS3 Craven Park. Saints also beat Rovers 50-0 in the 2006 semi-finals when Rovers were a National League One side - the last time a non-Super League side made the last four.
Rovers beat Saints 22-14 on Sunday in the Super League. Saints haven't won at MS3 Craven Park since the 2008 quarter final clash.
Rovers were knocked out of last year cup at the first hurdle losing 20-18 at home to Catalan Dragons despite outscoring them by four tries to three. Three missed goals from Michael Dobson cost KR a place in the fifth round.
It's been 33 years since Rovers last won the cup beating Hull 10-5 in 1980. The last time they got to the cup final was in 1986 when Castleford beat them 15-14.
