Chelsea were knocked out by Brighton & Hove Albion in the fourth round last season, so the Blues will be keen to improve this term with victory next month.
Ties are scheduled to take place in the week commencing October 27, which will see Chelsea face Wolves in between their Premier League clashes against Sunderland and Tottenham Hotspur.
Chelsea defender Malo Gusto has made it clear that it is the club's objective to win the Carabao Cup this season, a competition they have not won since 2015.
"We are on the way to win this trophy," said Gusto. "We want to win it, for sure. We know that last season was good for us in terms of trophies, but we want more for this season."
