Bradford's reward for knocking Arsenal out of the Capital One Cup is a semi-final against Aston Villa, while Chelsea will take on Swansea.

League Two Bradford will play the first leg of their semi-final at home against five-time winners Villa.

Chelsea, who thrashed Leeds 5-1 on Wednesday night to progress, will play their opening leg at Stamford Bridge.

The first matches will be played in the week starting 7 January and the second legs a fortnight later.

The Bantams pulled off one of the biggest League Cup shocks by beating Premier League side Arsenal on penalties at Valley Parade last week.

Villa won 4-1 away at Norwich and are currently unbeaten in six matches in all competitions.

Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez is expecting a tough test against Swansea, who are 10th in the Premier League and drew 1-1 with the Blues in November.

"Swansea are a good team and we have to do well in a semi-final of any competition," said Benitez. "They like to play football on the floor and it will be interesting.

"Every competition is important for us; a top side has to try to win every competition and now we are in the semi-finals so we are close to winning."
