Carabao Cup preview

The Carabao Cup returns this week, and all four teams involved in the semi-final are only 90 minutes away from Wembley. The second legs should bring some drama, especially in the match between Chelsea and Arsenal, as the first leg ended 3-2, so one early goal from Chelsea could dramatically change the outcome of the match. Newcastle and Man City face off in the other fixture, and Pep Guardiola will feel confident that they can get to Wembley after winning the first leg 2-0.

Check out our thoughts on the Carabao Cup matches below. You can combine them in a double once you’ve got your Betfred account up and running.

Arsenal vs Chelsea (Tuesday at 8pm)

Arsenal are looking to finish the job at the Emirates after a 3-2 victory in the first leg put them within touching distance of Wembley. They currently sit seven points clear at the top of the Premier League, and after a convincing 4-0 thrashing of Leeds United over the weekend, Mikel Arteta’s side has rediscovered the clinical edge that briefly eluded them during a rocky January. With the title race heating up, the Gunners will be keen to use this London derby to maintain their momentum and secure their place in the Carabao Cup final.

Chelsea arrive in North London as a team transformed under the early tenure of Liam Rosenior. Despite trailing on aggregate, the Blues are riding the wave of a five-match winning streak, most recently pulling off a dramatic 3-2 comeback against West Ham that sees them sit fifth in the league. Chelsea haven’t beaten Arsenal since 2021, but with a spot in the final on the line, Rosenior’s men will be hopeful that they can overturn the deficit and spoil the party at the Emirates.

Man City vs Newcastle (Wednesday at 8pm)

Manchester City host Newcastle United in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final. Despite a recent stumble in the Premier League, which has included a frustrating 2-2 draw with Tottenham, Pep Guardiola’s team hold a strong 2-0 aggregate lead following a clinical performance at St James’ Park last month.

Newcastle United arrive in Manchester needing a minor miracle to keep their hopes of a second consecutive League Cup final alive. Their form has been a cause for concern lately; Eddie Howe’s side has slipped to 10th in the table and struggled for consistency, particularly away from home where they have managed only a handful of wins this season. However, the Magpies can take heart from their 2-1 victory over City back in November, a night where Harvey Barnes proved they could dismantle the champions’ defence.

Man City & Arsenal favourites to win the Carabao Cup

UK betting sites see Man City and Arsenal as the favourites to lift the Carabao Cup trophy, with Man City just ahead of the Gunners in the betting odds.

It’s no shock to see Newcastle at the bottom of the list at 40/1 after the 2-0 defeat they suffered in the first leg, but the holders showed last year that anything can happen in cup football.
