"Bury have taken their full allocation and are confident they will sell that," managing director Rob Bickerton said today.
"It would be nice - and not an unrealistic expectation - if we could sell all our tickets as well. It's going to be a busy few days but it's great to be in this position."
Both legs of the semi-finals will be televised by Sky, with Shrewsbury's match available on the red button interactive 'match choice' service on Thursday along with the other semi-final involving Rochdale and Gillingham.
