The First Round of the Carabao Cup takes place this week, across Tuesday and Wednesday.
There are 29 games on Tuesday, with the remaining six being played on Wednesday.
One tie that won't be played this week is QPR v Norwich City. That has been delayed until next week to allow more recovery for the Loftus Road pitch after it had major improvement works done to it.

Wrexham missing Mullins, seems they’re reliant on his goals, Ollie Palmer isn’t getting much service

Agree, I don't know how long Mullin is out for but they'll need to sign someone if they want to be scoring the goals to have them compete at the top of League Two. Palmer doing his best but only really had chances from distance.

Think he has another 2 or 3 weeks stateside before he’s allowed to fly home, can’t really see him much before the end of September, Mcleans going to need to hit the ground running and provide some much needed help to Palmer if they’re going to stand a chance of getting goals while Mullins is out

Swansea, Newport AND Wrexham all won in the efl cup meaning only cardiff are left to finish the job out of the welsh clubs in the efl cup.
AND if the bluebirds win they might get a welsh derby. Anyone fancy Cardiff v Wrexham/ Cardiff v Newport/ Cardiff v Swansea?
Home or away Cardiff have a great chance to meet another welsh club in the cup.

Can't draw Wrexham. 2nd round is still regional. 2nd round tie against Newport home or away could be a feisty evening though.
