Last season City made it to the Third Round of the competition after a Kevin Kilbane penalty saw City pick up a 1-0 victory away at Dagenham & Redbridge in the first game of the 2012/2013 season, before a thrilling 3-2 (after extra time) victory at The Ricoh Arena over local rivals Birmingham City saw them drawn away to Premier League opposition, in the form of Arsenal where Olivier Giroud’s first goal for The Gunners, a Theo Walcott double and strikes from Andreiy Arshavin, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Miguel Ignasi bought an end to City’s Capital One Cup adventure.
