Leeds United will kick off their Carabao Cup campaign with a second round tie against Barnsley on Wednesday night.

Jesse Marsch’s men will be seeking to go further than they did in the 2021/2022 season, when the Whites were knocked out in the fourth round by a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.

If United succeed in beating their South Yorkshire rivals at Elland Road, they could compete against the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea in the next stage as the top flight teams involved in European competitions enter the hat for the third round.
