A group of 32 teams will learn their 3rd Round Carabao Cup opponents when the draw is held on Wednesday, August 24. All 16 matches in the 3rd Round will take place between Tuesday and Wednesday, November 7-8.

The seven Premier League teams involved in European cup competitions will enter the Carabao Cup at this stage, joining the 25 survivors of the 2nd Round.

The Premier League will have the most representatives of any of the four tiers of English football. Fulham have been the only Premier League club to bow out thus far at the hands of League Two side Crawley Town.

Two other Premier League clubs — Leicester City and Bournemouth — needed penalty kicks to oust lower-division opposition. Additional upsets could be in store prior to the 3rd Round draw with Leeds-Barnsley, Tranmere-Newcastle, and Forest Green-Brighton left to be played.

Is there extra time in Carabao Cup 3rd Round?

The 3rd Round will unfold just like the previous ones: single-elimination knockout round matches that must produce a winner on the night. 

If teams are level after 90 minutes, they will go straight to penalty kicks in the 3rd Round. Extra time does not come into play until the two-leg semifinal stage. There, if clubs are tied on aggregate at the end of the semifinal second leg, they will play 30 minutes of extra time. If a winner does not emerge during extra time, a penalty kick shootout will decide the semifinal winner.

The tournament final at Wembley Stadium will also feature extra time and penalty kicks, if necessary. Both came into play during the Liverpool vs. Chelsea final in the most recent edition, where a memorable penalty shootout saw the goalkeepers take attempts as the shootout finished 11-10 in favor of Liverpool.
