Chris Hughton wants Premier League opposition at The Amex in the FA Cup again after steering Albion through to the fourth round for the sixth year in succession.
That is the reward the new manager has targeted for yesterday's 2-0 victory at Brentford in his first game at the helm.
Hughton, a two-time FA Cup winner with Tottenham, said: "We would like a home tie and also we would like one of the Premier League teams, because that would be great financially for the club and for the supporters."
Albion have already enjoyed four FA Cup ties at The Amex against top flight opponents. They beat Newcastle in 2012 and again in 2013 before losing to Arsenal. Last year they held Hull to a draw in the fifth round but lost the replay on Humberside.
The draw takes place on BBC TV tomorrow night.
