The closest either side came to a winner in the third-round clash on Saturday was when the League One side's Ashley Hunter struck the post in added time with a deflected strike.
Right-back Schwabl more than played his part in keeping the Foxes at bay and he is now looking forward to the replay at the King Power Stadium.
Schwabl told BBC One: "We played very well today, everyone played to their maximum, we were digging deep and with a bit of luck in the last minute maybe we could have won the game.
"I think if we don't believe in ourselves we won't go (to Leicester). There's a chance but they are favourites and we need a perfect day.
"In the end, it was a great performance from us against a very strong side so I'm happy today."
