Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace have been drawn to play Leyton Orient away in the first round of the Worthington Cup.
The one-legged matches will take place on the week commencing August 20, 2001.
Palace were beaten by eventual winners Liverpool in the semi-final of last season's cup, 6-2 on aggregate.
