Pompey fell at the first hurdle after suffering a 2-1 extra-time defeat at Cardiff last term.

Changes to the rules in his year's Carabao Cup means games will go straight to penalties if they end in a draw after 90 minutes. 

Jackett's men delivered two victories over Wimbledon in League One last campaign.
