Tottenham have been awarded a bye into the fourth round of the Carabao Cup - where they will face London rivals Chelsea - after their tie against Leyton Orient was called off due to a coronavirus outbreak among the League Two side's squad.
The EFL confirmed the decision on Friday morning, meaning Spurs will now play the Blues on Tuesday, September 29 for a place in the quarter-finals.
The round three match between fourth-tier Orient and the Premier League club was scheduled for last Tuesday at The Breyer Group Stadium, however it was not allowed to take place following a ruling by Waltham Forest Council after several Orient players tested positive for coronavirus.
