IBTimes UK will be back this weekend to bring you extensive live coverage of a full slate of Premier League games which includes an initial meeting between West Ham and Spurs, Manchester City vs Crystal Palace, Stoke vs Chelsea, Southampton vs Manchester United and Leicester vs Liverpool.
Until then, it's goodbye.
Difficult tasks lay ahead for both Norwich and Wolves, while United have already thumped Swansea once already this season and Everton were comfortably beaten by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Leeds at home is a potential banana skin for Leicester as it pits them against the current Championship leaders. Ditto Bournemouth, who will have to be at their best to see off recently relegated Middlesbrough.
It's been a shock-free evening in English football's second-tier cup competition, with Chelsea thrashing Nottingham Forest 5-1 courtesy of a hat-trick from Michy Batshuayi.
Theo Walcott's first-half goal was enough to see Arsenal past League One outfit Doncaster Rovers and two efforts from Leroy Sane either side of a rare strike from Claudio Yacob secured a 2-1 win for Manchester City at West Brom. Hal Robson-Kanu struck the post in the 94th minute at The Hawthorns.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin bagged a double and forgotten man Oumar Niasse also notched for Everton in a 3-0 home defeat of Simon Grayson's Sunderland.
No extra-time across any of tonight's five third-round clashes means no delays to the draw for the last 16 of the 2017-18 Carabao Cup.
Proceedings will follow hot on the heels of tonight's live televised match at Old Trafford, where holders Manchester United eased past Championship minnows Burton Albion 4-1 thanks to an early brace from Marcus Rashford and further goals from Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial.
