Arsenal to face Brentford at home in the Carabao Cup third round

Arsenal v Sunderland - Premier League


Arsenal will face Brentford at home in the third round of the Carabao Cup, it has been confirmed.
The Gunners enter the competition at this stage following their exploits in the Premier League last season but will face a stern test against Championship promotion hopefuls Brentford. 
Dean Smith’s side have been in impressive form this season and are sure to head to the Emirates with no fear as they gear up to take on Arsenal. 
The encounter will be Unai Emery’s first cup game in English football, with rotation likely to be prevalent in his team selection for the clash. 
A date for the fixture has not yet been arranged, but all of the third round matches will be played on the week commencing Monday 24 September.
Arsenal will head into this game as the firm favourites but will be aware of the threat that the Bees possess ahead of the third round fixture. - Read Sport
