Carabao Cup 3rd round draw - how to watch, start time and live details for Man United and Man City

Manchester United and Manchester City will find out their third round Carabao Cup opponents when the draw takes place tonight.

The two Manchester sides have had recent success in the competition with United lifting the trophy in 2017, while City have won the cup six times in the past eight years. The Carabao Cup should be a prize that Erik ten Hag is keen to target this season as he looks for his first silverware in England.

The Dutchman is looking to stamp his authority at United and lifting a trophy in his maiden campaign would be a massive boost. However, given Pep Guardiola's love for the competition, Ten Hag will have his work cut out if he is to bring the cup back to Old Trafford.
