(Reuters) - Leicester City's rescheduled fourth round League Cup match against Southampton will take place on Nov. 27 at the King Power Stadium, the Premier League clubs said on Thursday.

The tie, originally scheduled for Oct. 30, was postponed following the death of Leicester City owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha in a helicopter crash near the King Power Stadium on Oct. 27.

Leicester said in a statement that all tickets purchased for the original fixture would be valid for the rescheduled date, while supporters with tickets who were not able to attend the revised fixture would get a refund.
