The English football season is well underway now, and Premier League sides get their first taste of cup action on Tuesday and Wednesday evening.

The EFL Cup second round kicks off this evening, with every top flight team - except those involved in European competition - joining the remaining Championship, League One and League Two outfits in the hunt to reach Wembley.

Expect to see Premier League bosses making massive changes to their starting line-ups, as they field weaker XIs to keep the best players fresh for the weekend's league action.
