Treble-winners Manchester City will travel to Newcastle while holders Manchester United will play against Crystal Palace in the third round of the Carabao Cup.

The pairings were among the pick of the ties as the sides that qualified for Europe this season entered the competition for Wednesday’s draw.

Record nine-time winners Liverpool were handed a home tie against Championship Leicester and Arsenal will face Brentford.

The Premier League’s bottom side Everton, who needed two late goals to see off League Two Doncaster, were given an away tie at Aston Villa.

Chelsea, who came from behind to beat AFC Wimbledon, will face Brighton, while Salford, who beat Leeds on penalties, will host Burnley.

Fulham, who saw off Tottenham, will host Norwich while fellow top-flight sides Wolves, Luton and West Ham will travel to Ipswich, Exeter and Lincoln, respectively.

Sutton, the lowest-ranked side left in the competition, were drawn away at Port Vale.
