Capital One Cup draw: North London derby!

Fixture Congestion Season is upon us, kids. Thursday's the Champions League draw, but before that, we had the Capital One cup draw just now, and it coughed up a tasty fixture: Arsenal play Spurs on the 21st of September. Hostilities renewed, rivalries intensified, etc. Remaining to be seen: whether Arsenal play their U-19 squad.

Also of interest from an Arsenal perspective in the Capital One Cup draw:

- A Midlands derby, featuring Jon Toral's Birmingham taking on Aston Villa
- Ipswich Town, with Ainsley Maitland-Niles, travel to Old Trafford
- Chuba Akpom and Isaac Hayden's Hull City host Swansea
- Serge Gnabry's West Bromich Albion at Norwich
- Emiliano Martinez's Wolves at Middlesbrough
- Jenko's West Ham at Leicester
- Also, if Daniel Crowley and Barnsley get by Everton tomorrow somehow, they'd be at Reading

All these matches will take place the week of the 21st. Exact dates/times to be confirmed.
