Carabao Cup fourth-round prize money
Chelsea will now face Wolves, Manchester City take on Swansea City, Arsenal host Brighton, Liverpool clash with Crystal Palace, while Newcastle United and Spurs are going head-to-head.
For the majority of those teams, the prize money on offer in the Carabao Cup is negligible compared to what they can earn in European competitions this season.
Regardless, it is still a good chance at silverware, which is more important to fans than how much money a team can earn.
The aforementioned sides have already earned £10,000 each from success in the third round, with teams like Swansea netting slightly more as they entered at an early stage.
Winners from Tuesday and Wednesday night’s fixtures will secure an extra £15,000, with the eventual winner of the competition going on to earn £100,000.
Round Prize money
First Round winners £5,000
Second Round winners £7,000
Third Round winners £10,000
Fourth Round winners £15,000
Quarter-Final winners £25,000
Semi-Final winners £25,000
Runners-up £50,000
Winners £100,000
A place in the 2026/27 Europa Conference League will also be gifted to the eventual victor, and that is where the real money can be made.
In the current season, UEFA pays teams £350,000 for every match they win in the group phase, with success in that competition securing one team £2.6m.
