Liverpool are all set to host Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup 2024-25 semi-final second leg. Tottenham will have an advantage here as they defeated Arne Slot’s men in the first leg by 1-0. The Reds are the defending champions and will look to make a comeback and seal their spot in the EFL Cup 2024-25 final.

The hosts Liverpool have won the Carabao Cup 10 times, which is also the most by any team. The Reds defeated Chelsea last season in the final to lift the title. Liverpool are flying as they are the table toppers in both the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League this season. Arne Slot’s men will be under some pressure but with the advantage of their home ground, they might turn the tide here.

Tottenham Hotspur will also be under pressure as they are facing the in-form Liverpool. Ange Postecoglou’s men are not doing well in the Premier League but they are on a decent run when the UEFA Europa League is considered. Spurs will be looking to use the 1-0 advantage to their benefit here. It is going to be a heated outing.
