Arsenal vs Norwich City
Chelsea vs Everton
Manchester City vs Wolves
Leicester City vs Leeds United

Matches to be played on the 24/25 October. United have already added our game to the calendar for the Tuesday night, so I assume they know.

Tough game away to Swansea. Think Mourinho will play a very strong side in this one.

They've improved since the chastening.

We should go with the pace we showed last night. Without Pogba, let's give them a different problem to solve

Tough games for Spurs and Chelsea.

Spurs probably hating all these home draws in the League Cup. Only had 23,000 at Wembley last night.

So will Spurs.

I'm not seeing any upsets in that draw, except maybe United away at Swansea which could be a tough tie, but We should still squeeze through.

Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United
Bristol City vs Crystal Palace
Swansea City vs Manchester United
Arsenal vs Norwich City
Chelsea vs Everton
Manchester City vs Wolves
Leicester City vs Leeds United
Bournemouth vs Middlesbrough

Pathetic round of matches, but it's all set for one hell of a next round, aside from the Bournemouth/Borough and Palace/Bristol tie the rest of them could line up some crackers.

City vs United and Leeds vs Chelsea would be two belting games. Then Arse vs Chelsea, where they can't settle for 0-0.

All the big teams will go through easily, even Chelsea draw that can be considered the trickiest will be played in the Bridge. They'll win without much troubles.

There surely has to be at least one upset. In order perhaps: Bristol City, Middlesbrough, Leeds, Norwich, Swansea, Wolves, West Ham, Everton.

Leicester equalize.
Meanwhile, we are trying to create some chances, but Norwich defend well.

Wenger went full PL only, seems he decided to take any other competition as 2nd rate, playing all those who wont start in PL, that way keeping them fresh. Top 4 is only goal for him this season how it looks.

His bench is all academy too. That said, that team has won 3/3 in Europe for him so far.

Nearly the same team, but a completely other motivation. Wenger never cared about this cup and today it's not really different so far.
