Ryan Graydon (16 mins)
Moments after Fleetwood hit the woodwork, they are level through Ryan Graydon.
He runs onto Matty Virtue's ball before slotting past the keeper.
Walsall 0-0 Huddersfield
The League Two hosts nearly break the deadlock early on but teenager Nathan Lowe flashes a shot wide of the post after being played in on goal by veteran Albert Adomah.
Everton 0-0 Doncaster
No chances for Everton yet. Doncaster almost gift them an opportunity after a mix-up at the back between Joseph Olowu and Ian Lawlor but Rovers get away with it.

Utility man Joe Rankin-Costello has gone close for the hosts, whipping a shot wide from the edge of the area.
Brighton 0-0 Crawley
Brighton's Matt O'Riley has to be helped off the pitch by a couple of physios and he's replaced by Mark O'Mahony. Not the debut he'd have hoped for.

On his full debut for the R's, Hevertton Santos has put QPR ahead in their all-Championship tie against Luton Town.
Santos reacted first to finish from close range after Hatters goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski could only parry Elijah Dixon-Bonner's low, first-time effort from the edge of the penalty area.
Coventry 0-0 Oxford
Coventry should be ahead as Liam Kitching, free in the box, cannons a header off the crossbar from four yards out.

Very unique circumstances for Coventry. Our last 4 games have been Bristol City away, Oxford at home. Bristol City away, Oxford at home.

Leicester 0-0 Tranmere

Eriksson was boss of the Foxes from October 2010 to October 2011, winning 24 of 55 matches.
Brighton 0-0 Crawley
A potential disaster here for Brighton debutant Matt O'Riley, who is caught by a reckless tackle and they're calling for the physios to come on.
He only just joined from Celtic in a £25m deal yesterday.

People posting about a League Cup without sides in Europe. I naively thought 30+ years ago that those leaving EFL for the Premier League would be excluded. Maybe now?

Middlesbrough 0-1 Stoke
Boro have been slow to get going but that is close, a ball in from the right is volleyed on goal by Sonny Finch and the Stoke keeper pushes it clear.

First chance for Brighton as Julio Enciso fizzes a fantastic shot just wide from long range.
The 20-year-old loves a screamer. Well he does when he scores anyway.
Brighton 0-0 Crawley
A touching tribute to the late Sven-Goran Eriksson at the Amex Stadium this evening.

No messing around from Rotherham.
Fleetwood don't clear a ball into the box properly and Jamie McCart smashes home.
Could that have legs? What we definitely don't need is another new competition...

As someone who’s become dispirited by the same clubs winning year in year out, I’d be all for a league cup competition without teams playing in Europe. Lessens fixture congestion, provides teams a chance to win a trophy and get into Europe who normally wouldn’t! It’s a silly idea but would bring a bit of fun back to football!

We are under way in Barnsley, Barrow, Blackburn, Brighton, Cov... actually you get the idea.
The 15 matches at 19:45 BST have started.
Birmingham City v Fulham (20:00 BST)
Fulham
Fulham manager Marco Silva speaking to Sky Sports: "Tonight we are going to start again and it is always our ambition to go as far as we can go and to do the same kind of run as last season [in the Carabao Cup] is perfect for us. If we can go one step further then it would be better.
"It doesn't matter who we play, we prepare the same way. Huge respect for Birmingham as well. You can see that there are 11 changes but the team is strong enough to represent us well. We will do our best to play in the next phase of the competition. Every time we can have them on the pitch it will be better than the training session. It is not because of fatigue, it is important to have all players a the the same physical level. This evening you are going to see five debuts in our football club. Let's hope everything goes well for them."
Watford v Plymouth Argyle (19:45 BST)
Wayne Rooney
Plymouth Argyle manager speaking to Sky Sports
Image source, Getty Images"I know Tom [Cleverley] has wanted this. He has put a lot of work in to get this opportunity., He is doing a very good job [at Watford] and I am pleased to see him because I know how difficult it can be."
On the passing of former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson: "Yesterday was such a sad day. Sven played such a huge role in my career. He gave me my debut and we had such a great relationship and when I went into management we were in touch too. It is such a big loss for football. I think we can all look back and say he was a very good person."
