Fleetwood Town Upsets Arsenal, Advances in Carabao Cup

Fleetwood Town advanced to the Carabao Cup quarter-finals by defeating Premier League champions Arsenal in a penalty shootout on October 29. This victory makes Fleetwood the lowest-ranked team remaining in the competition.

They will face either Everton or Newcastle United, who are set to play at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the final fourth-round fixture. Defending champions Manchester City will host League One side Bradford City at the Etihad Stadium after their own penalty shootout win against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Crystal Palace, who eliminated Brentford, will play against Sunderland at Selhurst Park. Liverpool will host Bournemouth in an all-Premier League quarter-final after overcoming Chelsea in a dramatic penalty shootout at Anfield.

Chelsea's coach, Xabi Alonso, downplayed the defeat, stating that the Premier League is their main focus. The quarter-final matches are scheduled for the week commencing December 14.
