Carabao cup fourth round draw: Chelsea to face soft opponent

Carabao cup fourth round draw: Chelsea to face soft opponent

 The draw for the fourth round of the Carabao Cup will take place next week.

We had to dig deep to take our place in the last 16 of the competition with a late, late show at Coventry City in round three on Wednesday night as goals from Djed Spence - his first competitive goal for us - and Brennan Johnson on 88 and 90+2 minutes turned the tie around for us.


Now we'll have to wait until next Wednesday evening (25 September) for the draw which will take place live on Sky Sports after the third round tie between Liverpool and West Ham.


The third round has been split over two weeks on the return of European football. Indeed, we play our first match in the new-look league stage of the UEFA Europa League at home to Qarabag on Thursday week (26 September, 8pm UK).


The fourth round of the Carabao Cup is scheduled to take place on the week commencing 28 October.


We're joined by Stoke, Sheffield Wednesday, Brentford, Southampton, Preston, Palace, Manchester United and Brighton as team who have already made it through to the fourth round - third round results and the rest of the third round ties next week are listed below.
