Some fixtures never need a sales pitch, and Liverpool against Chelsea under the Anfield lights is one of them. The Carabao Cup sits below the league in prestige, but a place in the quarter finals is up for grabs tonight, and nobody inside the ground will be treating it as a formality.

Our take is that this one carries extra sharpness because both clubs are still working out what they look like under new management.

Andoni Iraola has already tasted cup progress at Liverpool, having seen off Tottenham 3-1 in the previous round, while Xabi Alonso’s Chelsea have taken the scrappier route, scraping past Luton Town before surviving a wild 6-3 shootout against Leeds United.
