Who can Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham face in the Carabao Cup third-round?
Due to a new rule change thanks to the revamp of the Champions League format, the Carabao Cup third-round draw has undergone some changes.
Thanks to the Champions League expanding to 36 teams and an increased fixture list in the league phase, the third round of the Carabao Cup will be split over two separate weeks and six of the seven teams competing in Europe cannot be drawn against one another.
As a result, Arsenal, Man City, Man United, Liverpool, Tottenham and Aston Villa will be drawn first, followed by the remaining 26 teams. Chelsea are not included in the initial draw due to the Europa Conference League league phase beginning in October, provided they get past Servette in the qualifying round.
