Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs drawn together in new-look Continental League Cup

Last season's winners Chelsea have been drawn in the same group as losing finalists Arsenal as well as Tottenham and London City Lionesses in a redesigned Continental Tyres League Cup format.

There will now be six groups instead of four for this year's competition, with only the group winners guaranteed a place in the quarter-finals alongside the two best runners-up.

Manchester City and Manchester United will be joined by Everton and Liverpool in Group C.

The opening round of matches will take place on 7/8 October although no date or venue has been set for the final yet. Chelsea beat Arsenal 2-1 at Nottingham Forest's City Ground in last season's final back in February.
