Tonight’s Carabao Cup quarter-final will go straight to penalties should it finish as a draw after 90 minutes, with extra-time only coming into play from the semi-final stage of the competition.
Chelsea knocked out Newcastle on penalties on Tuesday night as the Carabao Cup quarter-finals began, while Everton had the chance to do the same to Fulham – only for Amadou Onana to miss and the Cottagers to progress instead. Middlesbrough are the last non-Premier League side in the draw, after they beat Port Vale.
This evening, Wednesday, Liverpool take on West Ham at Anfield in the last of the quarter-final ties.
