Colchester United will host Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday week after the North London side beat fellow Premier League outfit Leicester City to win their third-round replay tonight.
Son Heung-min's fine first-half strike six minutes before half-time and Nacer Chadli's well-taken goal midway through the second half at the King Power Stadium helped Spurs progress to a meeting with the U's on January 30.
The tie, which is expected to be a sell out, will be screened live on BT Sport and will kick-off at 12.45pm.
It is the first time ever that the U's will host top-flight opposition in a competitive fixture, at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.
