It will be the second time the two clubs will have met in the space of seven-and-a-half weeks.

The league match at the Mazuma Stadium in mid-September saw the Owls run out 3-0 winners thanks to goals in the last 20 minutes from Josh Windass, George Byers and Michael Smith.

Morecambe have reached round three in the last two seasons, when they were beaten by Premier League pair Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.
