West Ham secured a deserved win away to League One Derby at Pride Park to book an FA Cup fifth-round trip to Manchester United.
Jarrod Bowen opened the scoring after 10 minutes when he turned home a knockdown from Tomas Soucek.
The England man then turned provider at the start of the second period when his cross deflected into the path of Michail Antonio to score his 67th goal for the club.
It was the first time David Moyes' side had completed successive victories since October, following on from last weekend's crucial Premier League success against Everton.
And it now pits Moyes against his former club in cup combat at Old Trafford for the third successive season, the Hammers winning in the EFL tournament last term after losing in the last 16 of the FA Cup the year before.
The result marked the end of Derby's 14-match unbeaten run since they lost on penalties at Liverpool in November, although manager Paul Warne knows the main challenge for his side this season is to try and return to the Championship.
It was a good night for Antonio, who ended a six-match scoring drought.
The 32-year-old told BBC Sport last week he is open to the idea of leaving London Stadium and drawing the curtain on his seven-and-a-half year stint at the club.
Michail Antonio's goal was his first in two and a half monthsMoyes, knowing his other two strikers, Gianluca Scamacca and new signing Danny Ings, are currently injured, has rejected the idea out of hand.
Although his current run of nine goals in 43 appearances across the end of last season and the first half of this is not enough in terms of actual output, Antonio continues making the selfless runs down the channel which, if the Hammers are functioning properly, opens the space for others.
That it has not happened this season is as much the fault of those supporting Antonio as the forward himself.
Given his Nottingham Forest connection had been mentioned by the Derby fans early in the contest when he screwed a shot wide, there was an additional personal benefit to Antonio scoring his 67th West Ham goal.
Twelve months ago to the day, thousands of Derby fans marched to Pride Park from the city centre in a show of solidarity amid genuine fears the club was going to go bust.
Local businessman David Clowes eventually saved it. Clowes is the very opposite of an ego-driven owner, happy to remain in the background, even to the extent of watching the club's youth and women's team without telling anyone he is going to be there.
Warne reflected on those times in his programme notes. Although Wayne Rooney was manager then, the former Rotherham chief told the supporters to enjoy evenings like these and think of what might have been.
A trip to Old Trafford for the winner provided an added incentive but, in truth, Derby lacked the edge of class needed to really push their Premier League opponents.
James Collins volleyed a first-time effort wide in the opening period, Jason Knight was also off target from the edge of the area in the second and Lewis Dobbin's angled drive near the end was comfortably dealt with by Alphonse Areola.
