Carabao Cup quarter-final draw: Chelsea visit League One Cardiff as Arsenal host Palace

League One side Cardiff City will host Premier League outfit Chelsea in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.

The Bluebirds’ reward for seeing off Wrexham in the fourth round is a blockbuster clash against Enzo Maresca’s side after they survived a late comeback to beat Wolves 4-3.

Meanwhile, Arsenal host Crystal Palace in a repeat of Sunday’s Premier League game and indeed last season’s Carabao Cup quarter-finals. The Gunners beat Brighton while Palace inflicted more pain on Liverpool with a 3-0 win.

Manchester City have been drawn against fellow Premier League outfit after surviving from going a goal down to beat Swansea 3-1, with the Bees hitting five against Grimsby on Tuesday.

The remaining tie sees holders Newcastle face Fulham, with the Magpies seeing off Tottenham 2-0 and their quarter-final opponents needing penalties to avoid an upset against Wycombe.
