The Carabao Cup steps up another great this week with the quarter-final draw.
The fourth round has served up several all-Premier League ties, so big names will fall at this hurdle after Manchester United were dumped out back in August.
Arsenal take on Brighton, Liverpool host Crystal Palace, Chelsea take a trip to Wolves and Tottenham are away at holders Newcastle in four intriguing ties. Elsewhere, it’s an all-Welsh affair Wrexham face Cardiff for the first time in over 13 years.
So, 16 teams will be whittled down to the final eight. Which will earn their spot in the quarter-finals?
When is the Carabao Cup draw?
The draw will take place on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, though an exact time is yet to be confirmed.
