Carabao Cup: New system introduced ahead of next season

Ahead of next season football, the Carabao Cup organizers  have introduced changes to the competition.

According to the organizers, a seeding system is expected to come into place, in what is a direct reply to controversial changes made to the Champions League and the FA Cup.

The alterations will see clubs in European competitions given ranks and kept apart in the early rounds.

The newly introduced seeding arrangement could reduced clashing of the big clubs in the early stages of the competition.

Also, the third round of the competition will be staggered over a fortnight in an effort to ease fixture congestion.

According to The Telegraph, the changes come in the face of changes to both the FA Cup and Champions League.

Each Champions League side will now play an extra two group games as part of a whole competition league table. Meanwhile, fixtures will also run all the way up until January, as opposed to early December.
