THIRTEEN Premier League teams go into the hat for the second round of the Carabao Cup.
After bizarrely deciding to hold the first round draw in a Morrison’s near Wembley, Carabao are this time going more traditional and drawing the second round teams within the humble surroundings of Salford’s home ground.
When is the Carabao Cup second round draw?
THE draw for the second round of the competition takes place straight after the first round ties end.
As such, it will be held at the Peninsula Stadium after the clash between Salford City and Leeds United on Tuesday, August 13.
With no extra-time in the tournament, expect the draw around 10pm.
Thirteen Premier League teams join the draw at this stage – that includes every team NOT participating in Europe this season, along with last season’s relegated sides Cardiff and Fulham.
The second round draw will also be regionalised into North and South sections.
Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?
YOU can catch all of the draw live on Sky Sports Main Event and Football.
Coverage will continue directly after Salford vs Leeds finishes on these channels.
