The last confrontation
The two teams have not met since that Sky Bet Championship clash in July 2020. Leeds won 1-0 that day thanks to an own goal from Michael Sollbauer. That extended Leeds' winning streak against the Tykes to four games, conceding just once in that time.
Leeds is already at home
Thus came the home team:

Barnsley with similar record
Only twice in the last five seasons have they progressed beyond round one. Their first game of the competition last season ended in a penalty shootout defeat to then lower division opponents Bolton.
Leeds seeks to advance again
In the last five seasons, Leeds have only progressed beyond the second round of the EFL Cup on two occasions. The previous campaign was one of those occasions when a home win over Crewe Alexandra, earned them a place in the next round, which ended in a penalty shootout win at Fulham.
Greenwood signs new contract and these were the sporting director's words
"We knew when we brought him here from Arsenal that he was a great talent. He then impressed in the Under-23s and eventually moved up to the first team, showing a lot of versatility. We look forward to seeing how his career develops at Elland Road."

Barnsley looking for a surprise
Barnsley was the worst team in the Championship last season with 28 games lost and only 6 wins, relegation was more than clear for this team, now in this new League One season five rounds have already passed and this team has six points, with a regular season start, the team has already achieved a third of victories compared to last season, In their last game they took a 3-0 defeat and so they come to face Leeds in what promises to be a fun game, Barnsley has much to gain and little to lose in the EFL Cup clash, in case of taking the victory it will be a watershed in the season of this team, Leeds seems a motivated team this season, but anything can happen in this duel.
Leeds United to round off good start to the season
Leeds United had a very distressing last season, as they were in serious relegation problems, at the end of the season the team had been saved from relegation in the last days, for this new season they lost their most valuable player, Rapinha, who went to Barcelona for around 50 million Euros, but this did not diminish the team, as the start of the tournament for Leeds was very good, Leeds debuted in this new season against Wolves, for the second day they drew against Southampton in a great duel where in the last minutes they tied Leeds, in that game Rodrigo had a great performance, for the third day the team unexpectedly beat Chelsea 3-0, no doubt being undefeated in the first three days is a good sign and they will look for the EFL Cup to continue with the good streak.
Intense duel for a place in the next round
The EFL Cup continues and now it is the turn of Leeds United vs Barnsley, this duel involves a Premier League team against a League One team, two teams that last season were in a bad moment leaving them in the lower positions of the table, now that they know how they did, they will face each other in a great EFL Cup duel in the second round, at the beginning of the season both teams have started well and this cup duel could change their start of the season.
