Papa John's Trophy draw: Portsmouth handed trip to Exeter - plus details of who Sunderland, Sheffield Wednesday, Bolton and Ipswich got

The Blues will travel to St James Park the week commencing November 29.

Pompey’s last game against the Grecians was in February 2020, when they beat the League Two outfit 3-2 in the semi-final of the Trophy to book a second successive trip to Wembley.

They left it late, though, that night at Fratton Park, with Cameron McGeehan snatching a last gasp winner following other late goals from Marcus Harness, John Marquis and a Christian Burgess own goal.

Exeter are currently fourth in League Two and have been beaten only this twice season in all competitions.

The Blues book their place in the last 32 thanks to their 3-0 win over Crsytal Palace under-21s on Tuesday night, with George Hirst’s 90th-minute goal securing their passage beyond the group stages.
