Carabao Cup

West Ham United draw Blackburn Rovers in Carabao Cup third round

West Ham United have been drawn to face Blackburn Rovers in the Carabao Cup third round.

The Irons will host the EFL Championship side at London Stadium in the last-32 of the EFL Cup competition following Wednesday’s draw.

West Ham enter the tournament at this stage, having been exempt from the second round due to the Club’s involvement in the UEFA Europa Conference League this season.

Ties will be played in the week commencing Monday 7 November.

West Ham have reached the final twice, in 1966 and 1981, losing to West Bromwich Albion and Liverpool on aggregate and in a replay respectively.

The date, kick-off time and ticketing details will be confirmed in due course.
