They would bank £105,000 for getting through round three, and a further £120,000 for advancing beyond round four.

The replay against Luton has been confirmed for next Tuesday, January 10 (7.45pm) at the DW Stadium.

And the fourth round will be played between Friday, January 27 and Monday, January 30.

This means Latics’ Championship fixture at West Brom would have to be moved if either side is successful in next week’s replays.
