There are a few interesting games in the third round following our simulated draw. Liverpool will travel down south to face Brighton, a team they did not manage to beat once last season. The one game they avoided defeat in was one of Roberto De Zerbi’s first Premier League games in-charge of Brighton, in a 3-3 draw.

Brighton then won the reverse league fixture 3-0, before then beating them as defending champions in the FA Cup fourth round, in a 2-1 win.

Arsenal will also play host to Salford City, who are partially-owned by Manchester United’s famous Class of ’92. Salford dramatically made it to the third round after beating Leeds United on penalties, after 20 spot-kicks were taken.

Eight-time champions Manchester City host Bradford City, who famously made it to the 2013 League Cup final, but lost 5-0 to Swansea City.

Meanwhile we also have a feisty Staffordshire derby, with Stoke City hosting noisy neighbours Port Vale.
