Premier League sides will hope to cruise into the Carabao Cup quarter-final this week, with matches to be played on Tuesday and Wednesday. Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea are all in action on Wednesday.
With Manchester City dumped out by Newcastle in the previous round, a domestic piece of silverware is up for grabs for one of their top-flight rivals. Man Utd won the competition last term but are in poor form under Erik ten Hag.
A revitalised Liverpool will fancy their chances. As will the likes of Newcastle, West Ham and Everton, who have long gone without a domestic gong.
Eight matches will take place across Tuesday and Wednesday before the draw takes place. Express Sport brings you all the details.
