Tottenham were handed an all-Premier League Carabao Cup second round tie away at Fulham, while Chelsea were handed AFC Wimbledon at home in the same draw.

Ange Postecoglou will take his Spurs team across London in their bid to end their long trophy drought, with their last piece of silverware being the League Cup title 15 years ago.

Thomas Frank’s Brentford have to go to League Two Newport County later this month while Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace have a tricky trip to Championship side Plymouth Argyle.

The Northern Section of the draw saw a challenging tie for Sean Dyche’s Everton as they travel to League Two side Doncaster.
