The 2009–10 Football League Cup, known as the Carling Cup due to the competition's sponsorship by lager brand Carling, is the 50th season of the Football League Cup, a knock-out competition for England's top 92 football clubs.[1] The winners will qualify for the third qualifying round of the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League, if not already qualified for European competition.

First Round

The draw for the First Round took place on 16 June 2009, with matches played two months later in the week beginning 10 August 2009.[2][3]

Newcastle United and Middlesbrough received a first round bye as the highest ranked Football League teams from the previous season's league placings.[4] The other 70 of the 72 Football League clubs competed in the First Round, divided into North and South sections. Each section was divided equally into a pot of seeded clubs and a pot of unseeded clubs. Clubs' rankings depend upon their finishing position in the 2008–09 season.
