The Carabao Cup semi-final draw takes place on Wednesday, with a new winner already guaranteed to be crowned in February.

Manchester City’s stranglehold on the trophy was finally broken after four years when Pep Guardiola’s side suffered a penalty shootout defeat against West Ham in the fourth round.

Arsenal are already through to the semi-finals after Eddie Nketiah scored a hat-trick in a 5-1 thrashing at the Emirates on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, Brentford host Chelsea and Tottenham take on West Ham in two exciting London derbies, while Liverpool welcome Leicester City to Anfield.

Here is everything you need to know:

When is the draw and what time does it start?

The draw will take place at the conclusion of Wednesday’s quarter-finals, meaning fans can expect it to start at approximately 9.40pm. However, if any of the ties go to penalties, the draw will be slightly delayed.
