Fourth-tier Walsall have already proved themselves to be cup specialists this season. They rescued themselves in round one of this tournament with a stoppage-time equaliser against Exeter City, then came from two down to beat Huddersfield Town. They’ve also beaten Birmingham City and Fulham U21 in the Football League Trophy.

Leicester make ten changes to their team in the wake of the weekend draw with Everton. Jamie Vardy, Wilfred Ndidi, Harry Winks and Saturday’s goalscoring hero Stephy Mavididi are given the night off.

A mere two days after that brouhaha with Arsenal, Pep Guardiola makes nine changes to his starting XI. The most notable new face: centre-back Kaden Braithwaite, who at 16 years and 229 days becomes the third-youngest full debutant in Manchester City’s history. (For the record, he’s behind Glyn Pardoe and Paul Simpson.) Erling Haaland gets the night off.

Watford also hand out a debut to a centre-back, albeit one at the other end of his career. Angelo Ogbonna, 36 years young, pulls on a Watford shirt for the first time after his summer move from West Ham.
