Nottingham Forest are drawn to play Leeds United in the second round of the Carabao Cup. The tie is set to be contested as an all-Premier League matchup, with Forest hosting Leeds, according to the draw.
The draw also involves the other Premier League clubs not competing in Europe this season, which learn their opponents for the next stage of the tournament. The Independent and BBC Sport both report the same headline fixture pairing and highlight that it is the competition’s only all-Premier League tie in the second round.
While outlets focus on slightly different framing—one emphasizing the “11 Premier League teams not competing in Europe” learning their opponents, and the other detailing that Forest will be at home—both agree on the central result of the draw: Forest and Leeds meet in the Carabao Cup second round.
