Carabao (League) Cup 2018/19
The draw for the first round takes place this Friday morning 15th.
A number of changes have been announced to the format of this League Cup & I notice that West Brom are entering at the 1st round stage. Week com. Monday 13th August. The final is on Sunday 24th Feb 2019. However try as I might I can find no informaion on the dates for the rounds in between! Palace enter at the 2nd round and this is normally two weeks after the 1st round but this Season that makes it Bank Holiday week. My question is has anyone on the BBS got info. on the dates of these rounds?

Total guesswork, but I'd imagine Round 2 will be the Tuesday and Wednesday of 28th and 29th August as that is 2 weeks after Round 1, so there is just enough time to do the Round 2 draw and sell the tickets. Plus the following midweek (4th/5th September) is international week

I see that the much awaited Tottenham away game (at their new stadium) is on the same weekend as the FA Cup Quarter Finals.
So a fair chance it would need to be rescheduled to midweek (if either team are still in the Cup)

I guess our game will be on 29 August given that we are playing on the Sunday at Watford. I also see that there is no seeding for the 2nd round this year.

Yeah, I'd imagine Wed 29th - we'd be pretty silly to agree to play anyone on the Tuesday even if we make 6 or 7 team changes from the usual 1st choices.
No seeding.

Only southern teams in round 2 though isn't it?

EDIT - Yes, you're right, we can only play a 'Southern' team
In another rule change, clubs have voted to remove the seeding arrangements from the first two rounds of the Carabao Cup, although they will remain regionalised in north and south sections. To view the link you have to Register or Login No extra time in the EFL Cup this season - 90 mins, then straight to pens

Nope, see edit above, you were right it is regional. It'll have to be Newport County's latest ground or something.

All the first round games are Tuesday apart from Sunderland - Sheffield Wednesday which is Thursday. Not sure if it’s after the Tuesday game on sky, Thursday game or Friday morning ’live’ from another exotic part of the world

A bit of searching suggests it is just before the Sunderland game on Thursday.
