Five all-Premier League ties in the last 16
Current champions Manchester City will face West Ham in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, after the Hammers dispatched City’s rivals Man United on Wednesday night.
City hammered Wycombe in the third round to book their own spot in the draw, with the likes of Liverpool and Leeds also progressing on Tuesday.

The fourth round fixtures will be played across October 26 and 27.
