Defeats with Everton in the debut and on the last date a tie with Newcastle have not achieved the perfect start that they expected from those led by Mou.

They go into tonight's game as obvious favorites having won the Premier League last season and with the wealth of talent at the club. The Reds have won the EFL Cup a record eight times, though the last time they lifted the trophy was in 2012. Their last appearance in the final was in 2016 where they were beaten by Manchester City. Last year, Jurgen Klopp's side exited the competition at the quarter-final stage after a 5-0 loss to Aston Villa.

English Football League Cup Leicester City vs Arsenal Arsenal travel to Leicester City today to take on the Foxes in the Carabao Cup 3rd round. The Gunners have struggled at the King Power, amassing a poor 1-2-3 record since the Foxes returned to the Premier League in 2014. Of course, no fans in the stadium because of COVID-19 makes it a different story. Arsenal have only won the League Cup twice in club history: 86-87 and 92-93. With the final coming at the end of February, Mikel Arteta needs to win this one to keep up his 1 trophy every 30-odd matches record. Here are my hopes for today’s match, in order of importance: no injuries, squad rotation / minutes for younger players, actually winning the match. We say it every year but in this condensed, fixture-congested season it rings even more true: taking matchdays off the calendar by going out of a cup competition would not be the worst thing in the world. As a reminder, I always want Arsenal to win, but today, not winning wo...

Manuel Lanzini, Anderson and Andriy Yarmolenko are all out of favour when it comes to the Premier League, but the trio started against Charlton and should again be handed places in the side here. There are also expected to be starting roles for Robert Snodgrass and Josh Cullen, while Xande Silva was on the bench in the last round and could be involved in this clash. As for Hull, McCann is likely to make alternations from the team that started against Crewe in the league on Saturday, but the bulk of the XI could remain in place. Indeed, Wilks started the last round against Leeds and should continue in the team, while George Honeyman and Keane Lewis-Potter should also feature for the visitors.
