Following their incredible comeback victory over Wigan Warriors, Hull FC will face city rival Hull KR in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals.

At half-time, John Cartwright’s team had a 22-6 lead before coming back to beat the 21-time champions 26-22.

After beating second-tier Oldham, Willie Peters’ team cruised past them in the last eight at MKM Stadium.

The pair last competed in the Challenge Cup in 1986.

Warrington Wolves, the beaten-by-Widnes Vikings champion last year, will host St Helens, while Wakefield Trinity, the 2023 champion, will face Leigh Leopards.

The draw, which was broadcast live on the BBC, pits Salford in Perpignan against 2018 champion Catalans Dragons, who will start as heavy favorites.
