LEIGH Centurions did not get the glamour tie with a Super League club they wanted when the draw for the fourth round of the Powergen Challenge Cup was made last night.
Instead they must travel to one of their big National League One rivals, Featherstone Rovers on February 9.
Despite losing a close league game at Post Office Road last season, Leigh will be confident of reaching round five and the chance of a lucrative home tie.
Holders Wigan will have no problem reaching the next stage after they were paired with Widnes amateur side Halton Simms Cross at the JJB. Beaten finalists St Helens have a trip to France to play UTC.
Draw: Wigan v Halton Simms Cross, Sheffield Eagles v Keighley, Warrington v Bradford, Barrow v Salford, Wakefield v Castleford, London Broncos v Oldham, York v Doncaster, Hunslet v Huddersfield, Chorley v Swinton, UTC v St Helens, Wath Brow Hornets v Batley, Featherstone v Leigh, Hull v Halifax, Rochdale v Hull KR, Widnes v Dewsbury, Leeds v Whitehaven.
