The Carabao Cup quarter-finals get underway on Tuesday evening, with seven Premier League sides still involved and looking to reach the final four.
Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United are in the spotlight tonight as they take on the only non-Premier League outfit remaining in Charlton at Old Trafford, while Leicester travel to Newcastle in an intriguing affair.
Manchester City‘s run of four consecutive Carabao Cup triumphs was ended last year as Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool claimed victory over Chelsea to win the trophy, but they are now the favourites to prevail once more.
