Spurs v Southampton (19:45 GMT)
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs boss Jose Mourinho, like his opposite number, also says he accepts the date of this replay even if he does not like it.
He is also unimpressed that Spurs have to play RB Leipzig in the Champions League three days after their league return against Aston Villa.
"I don't like it. I don't like the way it is, especially because there is no attention to when you play Champions League," he said.
"It would be much more normal for us to be playing this weekend and not playing before you play against Leipzig. But no, you have a break but then you play against Aston Villa Sunday, not Saturday or Friday but Sunday.
"So they gave you 10 days of break, but then you play on the Sunday, when you then play on the Wednesday.
"So, for me, the break doesn't make any sense the way it is. But I don't complain, it is what it is."
