Chelsea discover Carabao Cup fourth round opponents
From the official Chelsea FC website:
Chelsea have been drawn away to either AFC Wimbledon or Newcastle United in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.
Our passage into round four was secured on Tuesday as League Two leaders Barrow were defeated at Stamford Bridge. Christopher Nkunku scored a hat-trick while a first Chelsea goal from Pedro Neto and an own goal sealed a 5-0 victory.
That put the Blues into the hat for tonight’s draw, which was hosted by Sky Sports’ Carabao Cup presenter Mark Chapman and undertaken by Jamie Redknapp and Kevin Nolan.
AFC Wimbledon and Newcastle were due to play their third round tie on Tuesday evening. However, the game was postponed due to flooding around the Cherry Red Records Stadium and a sinkhole opening up on the pitch.
The rearranged fixture will instead take place at St James’ Park on Tuesday October 1.
Fourth round ties are scheduled to be played the week commencing October 28. Full fixture and ticket information will follow in due course.
