Jesse Lingard scored a brace as Manchester United beat Swansea City 2-0 at the Liberty Stadium to reach the Carabao Cup quarterfinals.
United, whose starting XI included Sergio Romero, Axel Tuanzebe and Scott McTominay, went ahead on 21 minutes when Lingard slotted home after Marcus Rashford's neat flick from an Ander Herrera pass.
Lingard then produced a superb header from Matteo Darmian's cross to double United's lead on 59 minutes and ensure progress, despite some late tests for Romero.
Crystal Palace gained no respite from their Premier League struggles as they were beaten 4-1 away to Bristol City.
Palace, currently rock bottom of the league with just three points and two goals from their opening nine games, went ahead on 21 minutes when Bakary Sako drove home from Ruben Loftus-Cheek's assist.
However, the Robins levelled when Matty Taylor seized on Patrick van Aanholt's poor attempt at a back header and then took the lead through Milan Djuric after the Palace defence failed to deal with a throw-in.
They extended their lead through Joe Bryan's fierce strike from the left of the area on the hour mark, and the Championship side produced another superb goal through Callum O'Dowda on 66 minutes to deepen their visitors' misery.
Managerless Leicester City came from behind to secure a 3-1 win against Leeds United.
Former Valencia winger Pablo Hernandez, named Leeds' captain for the night, had given the second-tier club the lead when he made space on the edge of the area before sending a sublime shot in off the crossbar on 26 minutes.
Leicester hit back quickly, though, with Kelechi Iheanacho netting his first goal since his summer move from Manchester City after Leeds keeper Felix Wiedwald had failed to get the ball clear after making an interception.
Islam Slimani was on hand to turn home Iheanacho's cross to give Leicester the lead with half an hour to play, and Riyad Mahrez rounded off the scoring with a fine solo effort late on, making it two wins in two for Foxes caretaker Michael Appleton.
Callum Wilson was on target on his first appearance since January as Bournemouth beat Championship side Middlesbrough 3-1 at the Vitality Stadium.
Relegation battlers Bournemouth enjoyed plenty of possession during the first half but had to wait until the start of the second to go ahead, Jack Simpson hooking home following a corner.
Boro, currently 13th in the Championship, swiftly levelled through Marcus Tavernier, but Wilson's 75th-minute penalty restored their advantage before Benik Afobe slid in to put the tie beyond reach.
