Leicester City to face Wycombe in Capital One Cup

0
The Capital One Cup draw will bring back memories of one of Leicester City's greatest humiliations when they visit Wycombe Wanderers. Roy Essandoh's last minute winner which knocked Premier League City out of the FA Cup at Filbert Street in 2001 is the only previous meeting between the two clubs. City were odds on to beat the Second Division side and cruise into the semi-finals, and Wanderers were so ravaged by injury they advertised for a striker on the internet and recruited Essendoh on a trialist's contract. The substitute completed his Roy of the Rovers feat after coming on as a substitute and the result went down in the history books as one of the FA Cup's most infamous cup shocks. City went on a club record run of nine straight defeats after that loss. The game will be played the week commencing August 5. The other fixtures are: Bury v Crewe Alexandra Shrewsbury Town v Bolton Wanderers Middlesbrough v Accrington Stanley Doncaster Rovers v Rochdale Preston North End v Blackpool Barnsley v Scunthorpe United Tranmere Rovers v Mansfield Town York City v Burnley Notts County v Fleetwood Town Sheffield United v Burton Albion Oldham Athletic v Derby County Carlisle United v Blackburn Rovers Morecambe v Wolverhampton Wanderers Nottingham Forest v Hartlepool United Leeds United v Chesterfield Huddersfield Town v Bradford City Rotherham United v Sheffield Wednesday Port Vale v Walsall Gillingham v Bristol City AFC Bournemouth v Portsmouth Brentford v Dagenham and Redbridge Exeter City v Queens Park Rangers Charlton Athletic v Oxford United Southend United v Yeovil Town Millwall v AFC Wimbledon Swindon Town v Torquay United Birmingham City v Plymouth Argyle Stevenage v Ipswich Town Cheltenham Town v Crawley Town Bristol Rovers v Watford Northampton Town v Milton Keynes Dons Leyton Orient v Coventry City Colchester United v Peterborough United Brighton v Newport County
