Wrexham and Cardiff City will face off in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night, with the all-Welsh clash set to be shown live on TV
Wrexham and Cardiff City are set to go head-to-head in an all-Welsh showdown in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night. The two teams haven't faced each other since 2004, when the Red Dragons triumphed 7-6 on penalties in the semi-final of the FAW Premier Cup.
Now a Championship side, Wrexham have been boosted by the influx of funds and new signings from American owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds.
On the other hand, Cardiff, currently leading League One, will be looking to extend their Carabao Cup run following victories over Swindon Town, Cheltenham and Premier League team Burnley.
Wrexham, who have home advantage, have defeated Hull City, Preston North End and Reading to reach the fourth round.
Here, Mirror Football has provided all the information you need to watch the all-Welsh clash, including who could be in the starting line-ups for both teams.
