Could one of the games be on a Thursday?
theoretically. But clubs think in the modern world that playing games too close together can cause injuries etc. So a Thursday game would be confined to the Premier League sides whose fixtures the following weekend take place on Sunday or Monday. Of the six teams involved on those days only two are left in and they aren't playing each other in the Carabao Cup.

SKY TV games are 8.00 kick off. The club have announced 7.45. This could of course be put back, but why give a KO time if this was under consideration?
On Sky Sports website all the kick offs for that night are currently showing as 7.45pm, so decision still to be made I guess.

Update: All matches showing as Tuesday too. Have the Tuesday night messages been sent out too soon and we could still be on the Wednesday

Due to a number of Premier League games taking place on Sunday 29 October, options for live selections on Tuesday 31 October were impacted,


So we couldn't possibly show little Exeter City.....

TV money goes to money as usual and the true spirit of the cup ignored ! Hope promised regulator can impose true football values ?
LC further stuffed wef next season, more euro games, those teams may enter LC later, field U21 teams, or maybe not enter at all, under review.
