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