Why Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham aren't in Carabao Cup 2nd round draw
A number of Premier League clubs will enter the Carabao Cup second-round, joining the first-round winners in addition to Watford and Burnley - but Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs are not among them.
However, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and West Ham will have to wait until the second-round ties take place on the week beginning August 22 to find out their opening Carabao Cup opponents. That is because they are among the seven top-flight clubs who are involved in European action in 2022/23 and therefore exempt from the competition until the third round.

Draw time
Clinton Morrison and Michael Gray will conduct the draw alongside host Mark Chapman following the conclusion of Sheffield Wednesday’s first-round tie against Sunderland. The fixture, a repeat of their 2021/22 League One play-off semi-final, kicks off at 7.45pm and is one of seven outstanding first-round match-ups. The draw is expected to take place around 10pm, but will be dependent on whether penalties are needed to separate the Black Cats and the Owls.
