It’s a rich reward for defeating MK Dons 3-2 in the second round at Fratton Park on Saturday.

But Pompey will once again be without the services of Dane Scarlett for the clash.

Scarlett was missing for Saturday’s game and the first round win at Hereford as part of the conditions of his loan stay, as was also the case for Blackpool loanee Owen Dale.

The 18-year-old was hoping he would get permission to feature in the next round, but that now will likely be out of the question.

Cowley’s men will be out to deliver a repeat of the famous 2010 semi-final victory over Harry Redknapp’s Spurs at Wembley. It will be the fifth time the sides have met in the competition.
