Stags demolished Accrington Stanley 6-1 on Tuesday to book their place in the draw and assistant manager Ben Futcher said: “There are some fantastic potential draws with a lot of Premier League teams coming in now.

“Obviously we want a Premier League side, although a local one against Forest would be fantastic.
