The 2012–13 Football League Cup, known as the Capital One Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 53rd season of the Football League Cup, a knock-out competition for the top 92 football clubs in England and Wales. Liverpool were the defending champions having beaten Cardiff City in the 2012 Final, but were knocked out in this season's fourth round by Swansea City.

The final was won by Swansea City 5–0 against Bradford City at Wembley Stadium on 24 February 2013. Bradford were the first team from the fourth tier of English football to appear in a League Cup final since 1962. Swansea qualified for the third qualifying round of the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League by winning the Cup.[2]

First round

The draw for the first round took place on 14 June 2012 at 09:30 BST. The 35 matches were to be played on 13–15 August 2012, although if both teams agreed, they could play it on 11 or 12 August instead.[3][4]
