Albion have a great chance of reaching their first League Cup quarter final in 44 years after being drawn away to League One Charlton in the fourth round.
Brighton lost 3-1 away at the then League Champions in 1978 in the fifth round, still the furthest the Seagulls have progressed in the competition in 62 years.
After beating Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates in the third round last night, Albion are due to travel to the Valley in the week commencing Monday 19 December.
It will be the club’s first post World Cup match.
The Seagulls are scheduled to take on Aston Villa this Sunday (13 November) in the Premier League.
