Carabao Cup third round details as Brighton travel to Barnsley
Brighton and Hove Albion are back in League Cup action on Tuesday as they take on League One Barnsley at the Oakwell Stadium.
Albion progressed to the third round thanks to their 6-0 win at Championship outfit Oxford United last time out, while Barnsley enjoyed a 2-1 home win against Rotherham.
What have the managers said
Barnsley boss Conor Hourihane: "I'm really interested to see how our players react before the game and definitely afterwards, because we all watch the Premier League and sometimes I hear players going, 'That player is poor' and I think, 'Hold on a second!'" says Hourihane.
"I really hope one or two players go, 'Is that the level I need to work towards?' That would be nice, just to give them a little insight into the top players."
Brighton head coach Fabian Hurzeler wants to deliver a trophy for the fans: "For sure, it's what the fans are dreaming of and therefore I think we need to give everything for our fans, for our supporters.
"We saw last season that there's always a chance to win a cup. Of course, in some
moments you need a bit of luck, in some moments you need the right teams you face and we are in good shape.
"We look good. Always there's a chance to win something and therefore we need to regenerate now well and then be ready for Barnsley."
