Liverpool to Face Tottenham in Carabao Cup Third Round

The third-round fixtures for the 2026-27 Carabao Cup have been confirmed, featuring Liverpool against Tottenham in a highly anticipated match. Defending champions Manchester City will host Norwich, and Manchester United will face Brighton.

This draw follows a busy second-round, bringing nine Premier League clubs into the competition, including Arsenal, Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Sunderland. Tottenham's recent performance included a 5-1 victory over Charlton Athletic, where new signing Savio scored on his debut after coming off the bench.

The third-round matches are set to take place across the weeks beginning Monday, September 7, and Monday, September 14, to avoid clashes with the Champions League and Europa League opening rounds. Other notable fixtures include Ipswich hosting Arsenal and Coventry facing Aston Villa.
