Carabao Cup fourth round draw
The Carabao Cup continues apace with the competition entrants whittled down again ahead of the fourth round.
The arrival of the Premier League’s European representatives necessitated a splitting of the third-round fixture list, but the 16 remaining sides will face a more straightforward schedule as they contest a quarter-final place.
Some sizeable ties could be drawn with no regionalisation or pre-draw to worry about as English football’s secondary cup competition hots up.
