Ipswich Town now know which teams they could be drawn against in the first knockout round of the Papa John's Trophy.

Having topped Southern Group H - with wins against Northampton (6-0), Arsenal U21s (2-0) and a defeat at Cambridge United (1-0) - the Blues will definitely be playing at Portman Road in the last 32.

They will be drawn against one of the teams that finished as runners-up in the other southern groups. Those seven teams are: Charlton, Portsmouth, Cheltenham, Peterborough, Bristol Rovers, Newport County and Sutton United.

The EFL says that details about the draw - which will be broadcast live - will be released next week.

Second round ties are scheduled for the week beginning November 28. For Ipswich, that falls after a potential FA Cup second round tie (or blank weekend) and before a Friday night home game against Fleetwood in League One.

The competition remains regionalised up until the quarter-finals. 

All knockout matches, right up until the final, go straght to penalties in the event of a draw.
