This tournament has been ruined by the EFL. The previous incarnation was never a priority, but it had some really enjoyable games and the straight knockout format worked.

I don’t think the academy teams can play at home. They have to play all their group games away.

Correct.

This was the Checkatrade/Johnstone Paint/LDV Trophy.

The EFL Trophy is for 3rd and 4th tier + academy of 1st and 2nd tier aka Checkatrade Trophy
The EFL Cup is for all EFL and Premier League teams aka Carabao Cup.
League One is Division 3
The Championship is Division 2
And Division 1 is the Premier League
And the Champions League is a competition where over half the teams that qualify are not Champions. And it isn't a league, it is a cup. Mostly.
and the Europa League is a competition that isn't a league and has Champions in it when they get knocked out by non-champions.

Clear?
