Carling Cup 3rd Round Draw: United To Face Leeds
United face a trip to Leeds in the Carling Cup to face Simon Grayson's Championship side.
It's the pick of the third round ties and a familiar journey across the Pennines to tackle the Yorkshiremen after also being knocked out of the FA Cup by Leeds at Old Trafford a couple of seasons ago. The match will be played in the week commencing 19 September.
Sir Alex has suggested he'll blood some of his exciting youngsters in the competition with Paul Pogba among those name-checked by the boss.
Highlighting the strength in depth at the club, the Reds have a good record in the Carling Cup despite regularly fielding inexperienced teams. After winning the trophy in 2009 and 2010, United were knocked out by West Ham last year.
Full draw: Cardiff v Leicester, Wolves v Millwall, Chelsea v Fulham, Aldershot or Carlisle v Rochdale, Arsenal v Shrewsbury, Burnley v MK Dons, Leeds v Man United, Brighton v Liverpool, Nott'm Forest v Newcastle, Man City v Birmingham, Blackburn v Leyton Orient or Bristol Rovers, Swindon or Northampton v Charlton or Preston, Everton v West Brom, Crystal Palace or Wigan v Middlesbrough, Aston Villa v Bolton, Stoke v Spurs.
