The Wrexham v Cardiff City clash promises plenty of intrigue as both teams look to continue their Carabao Cup journeys.
Cardiff, meanwhile, sit top of the League One table, having suffered relegation at the end of last season. Brian Barry-Murphy’s rejuvenated side will be eager to move on from their narrow 1-0 league defeat to Bolton Wanderers. They entered the competition in the second round, beating Cheltenham Town 3–0, before eliminating Premier League opposition with a 2–1 victory at Burnley, thanks to goals from Joel Colwill and Callum Robinson. The Bluebirds, however, have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last four away matches, something they will be keen to rectify.
Interestingly, this will be the first competitive meeting between the two teams in recent history, with their previous meetings having taken place in the Welsh Cup and lower league matches. Neither have won the competition before, although Cardiff reached the final in 2012, losing to Liverpool on penalties at Wembley.
Which Welsh team will be celebrating on Tuesday night?
