Carabao Cup to be drawn this Friday Morning

|

Round three of the Carabao Cup will be drawn on Friday and again it will be drawn away from the UK.

The draw will take place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam on Friday 15th June at 10.45am, UK time.

Derby County has been allocated ball number 11 in the two sectioned draw. Derby is in the North section, along with Burton Albion (number 7) and Nottingham Forest (number 22).

New rules for the games in the Carabao Cup will also be in place for the 2018-19 competition. EFL teams have voted to scrape extra time in every round of the competition, except for the final. Games that end in a draw will now go straight to a penalty shoot-out to decide the winner.

The penalties will also revert back to the normal formate rather than the ABBA formula trialled last season.

The Caraboa Cup final this season will guarantee the winner an automatic entry into the Europa League in the 2019-20 season
