Liverpool handed Burton trip in EFL Cup

Burton Albion needed extra-time to beat Bury and earn a second-round tie against Liverpool in the EFL Cup.

Liverpool will travel to Burton Albion in the second round of the English Football League Cup after the Championship side beat Bury 3-2 in extra-time in their first-round tie.

Jurgen Klopp's men have been handed a trip to the Pirelli Stadium, while Antonio Conte's Chelsea will host Bristol Rovers or Bristol City in the Italian's first experience of the competition.

First-round giant-killers Luton Town – who beat Aston Villa 3-1 at Kenilworth Road – will entertain Leeds United.
