Either Derby County or Barnsley will play an away tie in the Third Round of this season’s Carabao Cup
against Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur.
Derby will head to Barnsley to play their Second Round tie on Tuesday 19th September, kick-off 7:45pm, after overcoming Sky Bet League 2 outfit Grimsby Town 1-0 in their re-arranged First Round tie on Tuesday evening.
The reward for the winners is a trip to face last season's Premier League runners-up, who are playing their first-team home matches at Wembley Stadium during 2017/18 whilst their new home - located next to their old White Hart Lane ground - is being built.
The original First Round tie against the Mariners was abandoned earlier this month due a waterlogged pitch at Blundell Park.
As the Second Round match at Oakwell is due to be played during the same
week as the Third Round ties, a later date will be have to be found in
the winner’s fixture calendar to play their own Third Round clash.
The Third Round draw took place in Beijing, China, at around 4:30am this morning.
