Burton Albion chairman wants big draw

Burton Albion chairman Ben Robinson is hoping for a big League Cup draw.

Burton Albion chairman Ben Robinson wants a Premier League team in the next round of the League Cup after wins against Sheffield United and Leicester City.

The Brewers beat League One United on penalties in the first round, before pulling off another shock, beating Leicester 4-2 yesterday.

Now, Robinson wants a Premier League team, preferably at home.

He told BBC Radio Derby: "You dream of getting a good draw at home and getting on the television or a draw away against a good team.

"In either instance you hope that you'll make a lot of money."

Since winning promotion to the Football League in 2009, Burton have never had a home draw in the League Cup.

The draw for the third round, which includes Premier League teams who play in Europe, takes place tomorrow evening.
