Man City host Norwich in Carabao Cup third round

Manchester City open their Carabao Cup defence against Norwich City on Thursday, with kick-off at 19:30 (UK) at the Etihad Stadium.

City are the reigning champions of the competition, having defeated Arsenal 2-0 at Wembley in March thanks to a brace from Nico O'Reilly. That victory was the club's ninth Carabao Cup title, leaving them second only to Liverpool in the all-time rankings with ten.

The third-round tie against Philippe Clement's Championship side will be available to follow via CITY+, the club's audio commentary service. Alistair Mann will be joined by summariser Nicky Weaver for the broadcast.

CITY+ subscriptions are priced at £34.99 annually or £9.99 per month. The service is also available as part of a Premium Membership package at £65 per year, which includes access to live commentary for all men's first-team fixtures across the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup.

Full-match replays are published within 24 hours of the final whistle, with 20-minute highlights also available on the platform for those unable to follow games live.
