Match preview

After an inauspicious start to the Championship season, 2013 League Cup winners Swansea City will be hoping this competition can kick-start their campaign.

The Swans began the new season with a 1-1 draw at Rotherham, but were then hammered 3-0 by Blackburn at home on Saturday.

In this competition, the Welsh club have only been beaten in the first round once since 2006, this coming in 2020 in Wales away to Newport.

Russell Martin will be desperately hoping his side enjoy safe passage to the next round at the Kassam Stadium.

Although, the last time these two clubs met was in an FA Cup tie in 2016 with Oxford United running out 3-2 winners back then.

The Yellows beat Cambridge United 1-0 on Saturday, having kicked off the new League One campaign with a defeat by the same scoreline at Derby.

Nevertheless, Karl Robinson’s side will believe an upset is very much on in this one.
