What is EFL Cup?
The '''EFL Cup''', known for most of its history as the '''Football League Cup''' and also known in the past by several sponsored names, is a national [[association football]] competition in [[England]], with a few clubs in [[Wales]] also playing. It is like the [[FA Cup]], but has fewer teams, and starts and ends earlier in the season. Unlike the FA Cup, which is open to hundreds of clubs belonging to [[The Football Association]], which runs football in England, the EFL Cup is open only to the 92 teams in the top four divisions of English football—those playing in the top-level [[English Premier League|Premier League]] and the [[English Football League]], which includes the next three lower divisions. == Winners == '''Note:''' * means ''after extra time'' === 1961–1966 (two legs) === {| cellpadding=3 cellspacing=0 !width=30|Year !width=200 align=right|Home Team !width=50|Score !width=160 align=left|Away Team !width=150 align=left|Venue |- |[[Football League Cup Final 1961|1961]] |align=right|[[Rotherham United F.C.|Rotherham United]] |align=center|2 - 0 ||[[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] |''[[Millmoor]]'' |- | |align=right|[[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] |align=center|3 - 0* |[[Rotherham United F.C.|Rotherham United]] |''[[Villa Park]]'' |- | |align=right|'''Aston Villa''' |colspan=2|won 3-2 on aggregate |- | |- |[[Football League Cup Final 1962|1962]] |align=right|[[Rochdale A.F.C.|Rochdale]] |align=center|0 - 3 |[[Norwich City F.C.|Norwich City]] |''[[Spotland]]'' |- | |align=right|[[Norwich City F.C.|Norwich City]] |align=center|1 - 0 |[[Rochdale A.F.C.|Rochdale]] |''[[Carrow Road]]'' |- | |align=right|'''Norwich City''' |colspan=2|won 4-0 on aggregate |- |[[Football League Cup Final 1963|1963]] |align=right|[[Birmingham City F.C.|Birmingham City]] |align=center|3 - 1 |[[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] |''[[St Andrews (stadium)|St Andrews]]'' |- | |align=right|[[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] |align=center|0 - 0 |[[Birmingham City F.C.|Birmingham City]] |''[[Villa Park]]'' |- | |align=right|'''Birmingham C
