Gary Megson's team are bound to be a tough nut to crack, especially at home and it is to be hoped that Brentford can repeat their last cup success over the Baggies, when the Bees' triumphed 4-2 on aggregate in the old Worthington Cup five years ago.
However, the competition now comprises of one-off matches in the first round and Brentford will travel to the Hawthorns on Tuesday 12th August, kick-off 7.45pm.
Nb. The Carling (League) Cup replaces the competition formerly known as the Worthington Cup, after the Football League announced they had agreed a new three-year sponsorship package with Coors Brewers Ltd, the owners of the Carling brand, yesterday (Tuesday).
