Carabao Cup Semi-final Draw: Arsenal To Face Liverpool While Chelsea Take On Spurs

Chelsea will face Tottenham in the Carabao Cup semi-finals while Arsenal take on eight-time winners Liverpool.

Antonio Conte comes up against his former club as Spurs attempt to reach the final for the second successive season.

Asked about taking on Chelsea following Tottenham's quarter-final win over West Ham, Conte told Sky Sports: "First of all it's good for Tottenham to reach a semi-final in this competition.

"You can see the names of the teams that reach this semi-final - Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea with us. It means that every club wants to try and lift this trophy.

"I remember in the past when I was in Chelsea this trophy was not secondary. But it was used to play with young players and players that did not start in the XI.

"Now I'm seeing in England that to win a trophy is very difficult and we have to beat important teams."
