Mikey Harris’ under-18s side will play the tie at Fratton Park before November 19, with the date to be decided in due course.

The Blues’ youngsters thrashed Eastleigh 5-0 last month, despite Ousman Saidy’s dismissal, with Sam Woodward and Jez Bedford netting doubles and Tommy Scutt also on target.

Premier League Academy sides lie in wait in the third round should Pompey progress to that stage.
