The League Cup Show

The League Cup steps up a level as the Premier League teams involved in European football this season join the fray - and the draw has thrown up some mouthwatering ties. Scunthorpe United have been handed a home tie with holders Manchester United, while League Two side Northampton have been rewarded with a trip to Anfield to face Liverpool. Elsewhere, Spurs and Arsenal have been drawn together so expect a fiery north London derby from White Hart Lane. Manish Bhasin rounds up the action.
