Yeovil Town host Championship outfit Crystal Palace, in the Carling Cup first round.

This easily could have been a fixture involving two League One sides, with Crystal Palace only securing their Championship status on the final day of the season, relegating Sheffield Wednesday.

After winning their opening game at the weekend, Palace will be hoping for a less eventful season than last, under the new guidance of George Burley.

However, the Londoner's travel to Yeovil minus several key players. Owen Garvan, Neil Dans, Sean Scannell and David Wright will all miss out, due to a mixture of injuries, suspensions and international commitments.

Yeovil on the other hand, have no injury concerns, with the only absentees likely to be Rob Kiernan, who Watford don't want cup-tied, and Andy Welsh.

The game is available to listen to at 99.5FM on BBC Radio Somerset.
