CHELSEA and Spurs have learned their opponents for the next round of the Carabao Cup.
With both clubs not playing in Europe next season, they will enter the competition in the second round.
Chelsea will host AFC Wimbledon in a London derby at Stamford Bridge as Mauricio Pochettino looks to lay down a marker for winning silverware.
Meanwhile, Spurs will face the short trip west as they take on Fulham in the second round.
The Carabao Cup may provide the Aussie with the opportunity to give minutes to some members on the outskirts of his 39-man first-team squad.
The draw was split into two halves between north and south to avoid excessive mid-week travel for fans.
