In a second successive round, Liverpool are involved in the outstanding tie of the set. It is a repeat of both the 2022 and 2024 Carabao Cup Finals, both matches won by Jürgen Klopp's team, the former on penalties and the latter in extra time. Virgil van Dijk's header securing victory for Klopp's kids over the Blue Billion Pound Bottle Jobs, as Gary Neville called them.
The last time Liverpool and Chelsea met in the League Cup away from Wembley was in the third round in 2018, a 2-1 victory for the Blues, with Eden Hazard scoring a sublime solo effort to win it. This time, Xabi Alonso will return to Anfield for the first time since being overlooked for the job on Merseyside, instead taking the vacancy in West London.
How can I watch Liverpool vs Chelsea in the Carabao Cup?

On top of this, terrestrial channel ITV also have the rights to, at least, one match per round free-to-air, as was the case with Tuesday's win over Spurs on Merseyside.
