The competition for the first trophy of the 2024/25 season is heating up as Premier League leaders and second-placed team head into the Carabao Cup semi-finals this week.
Arsenal will play against Newcastle United in the first leg at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, while Liverpool will visit the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday. Both matches will be shown live on GOtv Channel 65 at 9pm.
Newcastle, coming off a 2-1 win against Tottenham, will look to capitalize on their form and secure a good result for the second leg at St. James’ Park.
Newcastle will miss their captain, Bruno Guimarāes, due to suspension, while Arsenal is dealing with illness in the squad affecting Kai Havertz’s availability.
Arsenal sees the Carabao Cup as a crucial opportunity for silverware, especially with their chances for the league title diminishing.
Tottenham Hotspur faces Liverpool, the defending champions, aiming to avoid a repeat of their recent heavy defeat. Spurs have struggled at home recently, with just one win in their last eight matches—a close 4-3 win over Manchester United in the quarterfinals. Their last Carabao Cup victory dates back 17 years.
Liverpool, with only one loss this season, is pursuing a quadruple. A win against Spurs would bring them closer to a spot in the final at Wembley.
