When is the Carabao Cup draw? Many Crystal Palace fans are wondering after beating QPR in the Third Round over a week ago now.

Goals from Eddie Nketiah and Eberechi Eze fired Crystal Palace into the Fourth Round last Tuesday – but our opponent is yet to be revealed as we await the draw.

So, when is the Carabao Cup Fourth Round draw? Let’s take a look…

Carabao Cup Round of 16 draw

Oliver Glasner will discover his next Carabao Cup opponent on the evening of Wednesday 25th September – immediately after the clash between Liverpool and West Ham ends.

That commences at 8pm – so the draw may not take place until around 9:45pm, perhaps even later if the tie goes to penalties.

You can see the remaining teams in the hat below.

The ball numbers are yet to be released, but will be listed on Sky Sports as the draw takes place live.

When will Carabao Cup Fourth Round games begin?

Crystal Palace will play in the Fourth Round of the Carabao Cup in the week commencing Monday 28th October – with the tie to be played on Tuesday or Wednesday of that week.

Chance for Oliver Glasner to break a hoodoo

Not since the 2011/12 campaign have Crystal Palace gone beyond the Fourth Round of the League Cup.

You may recall the Eagles reaching the semi-final of the competition that year, before losing to Cardiff City on penalties, and you would have to go back to 2002/03 to find the only other time in recent history that we have surpassed the Round of 16, losing 3-1 to Sheffield United on that occasion.

Clearly, the League Cup has not often yielded much success for Crystal Palace, so hopefully, Glasner can break something of a hoodoo and get us in the Quarter-Final.
