Milton Keynes Dons will host Leicester City at Stadium MK on Tuesday (December 20) night in the last 16 of the 2022-23 Carabao Cup.
The hosts kicked off their cup campaign with a 1-0 win over Sutton United before picking up a shock 2-0 away win over Watford, with Matthew Dennis and Darragh Burns getting on the scoresheet in either half. Milton faced Morecambe in the competition last time out, picking up a largely comfortable 2-0 win. MK Dons last reached this stage of the cup competition in the 2014-15 campaign.
Leicester, meanwhile, have endured a wretched start to their season but have bounced back recently will hope to continue their cup run. They beat Stockport County on penalties in their first cup game of the season following a goalless draw before picking up a dominant 3-0 home win over Newport County last time out.
The visitors have made it to three semifinals and a quarterfinal in their last five Carabao Cup campaigns and will look to go all the way this time around.

The Dons' latest result snapped a four-game winless streak. They have, however, won just one of their last four home games and could struggle.
Leicester, meanwhile, have won their last three competitive games on the bounce and have lost just one of their last seven. They're overwhelming favourites and should come out on top.
