The Carabao Cup fourth round draw is set, and Liverpool and Chelsea have ended up with tough matchups.
The Carabao Cup fourth round draw is out, and big teams like Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal now know who they’ll be up against. After winning their third-round matches, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, and others were ready for the next challenge. Meanwhile, Manchester United had a surprising and early exit from the cup for the second year in a row, which shocked fans at Old Trafford.
Right after that game, the fourth-round draw took place — and it’s a tough one for Liverpool and Chelsea. Liverpool, after their exciting 3-1 win over Tottenham, will face Chelsea next. Chelsea, who recently had a thrilling 6-3 comeback win against Leeds, will head back to Anfield for this big clash.
Arsenal, who just beat Ipswich Town 4-2 with a standout performance from young Max Dowman, will take on Fleetwood Town. Fleetwood is the lowest-ranked team still in the tournament, so it’s a great chance for Arsenal to progress. Meanwhile, Manchester City, who play Norwich City soon, will face Brighton in the fourth round if they win their upcoming match. Brighton, fresh off a win at Old Trafford, could make another trip to Manchester if things go well.
There are also some other exciting Premier League matchups: Everton vs. Newcastle United, Sunderland vs. Brentford, Fulham vs. Crystal Palace, and Bournemouth vs. Aston Villa.
