Liverpool will face Tottenham Hotspur in the 2024-25 Carabao Cup semi-finals, while Arsenal takes on Newcastle United. The first legs will be played in January, with the second legs in February. The draw sets up the possibility of a North London derby in the final at Wembley in March.

Holders Liverpool have been drawn to face Tottenham Hotspur in the semi-finals of the 2024-25 Carabao Cup. The Premier League leaders, who have won the competition a record 10 times, will meet Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the first leg, with the return game scheduled for Anfield.

Arsenal, who will play Newcastle United, are set to host the first leg at the Emirates Stadium, with the second leg taking place at St James' Park. This sets the stage for a potential North London derby in the final, as Spurs and Arsenal have never met in a major domestic final, though they have squared off in League Cup semi-finals four times in the past.

The semi-final first legs will take place the week of January 6, 2025, with the second legs following in early February. The final is set for March 16, 2025, at Wembley Stadium.

The draw has piqued excitement, particularly for the possibility of an intense North London encounter in the final, a matchup that has eluded both teams in previous domestic cup competitions.
