The Carabao Cup fourth round has produced a heavyweight clash at Anfield. Liverpool and Chelsea will go head-to-head in this competition for the first time since the 2024 final at Wembley, in which Jürgen Klopp's kids famously beat Mauricio Pochettino's blue billion pound bottle jobs in extra time.
The Reds are the record ten-times winners of this competition, commencing their latest Carabao Cup quest by ousting Tottenham 3-1 in the previous round. The vast majority of those inside Anfield on Wednesday night, aside from 6,025 in the Anfield Road lower, will be hoping for a similar scoreline.
