We have simulated Wednesday's Carabao Cup second-round draw, and it's produced some exciting ties.

The likes of Blackburn Rovers, who beat Stockport County 6-1, Norwich City and Stoke City booked their spot in the next round of the competition on Tuesday.

Leeds United face Middlesbrough at Elland Road for a spot in the next round in the pick of tonight's clashes.

The second-round draw will take place after tonight's games, with the 13 Premier League clubs that are not competing in Europe this season entering the hat - alongside Burnley and Luton Town.

The other seven Premier League sides with European commitments will join the competition in the third round.
