We hunt down the best odds and give you our predictions for this mouth-watering cup tie.

Arsenal Preview – Will the Gunners make home advantage count?

With no European football to deal with this season, Arsenal have had a real go at the EFL Cup. The Gunners have looked strong in the competition so far, seeing off West Bromwich Albion, Wimbledon, Leeds United and Sunderland, scoring 16 goals to boot.

Mikel Arteta’s men have been sensational at the Emirates this season. After drawing 2-2 with Patrick Vieira’s Crystal Palace in October, the Londoners went on to win seven in a row at home in all competitions. Last time out, though, Arsenal were beaten by Man City at the Emirates.

Our betting prediction:
Arsenal to score first
8/11

(odds taken 1311 GMT, Wednesday 5 January)

 
Arsenal could really do with a win to take to Anfield. They are the underdogs to reach the final but the slight favourites to get the win on Thursday.

Liverpool Preview – Reds to take a positive result to Anfield?

Liverpool were involved in a real ding-dong battle with Premier League title rivals Chelsea on Sunday. The Reds led 2-0 thanks to Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah goals, but two Chelsea strikes in three minutes before half time tied the match at 2-2.

Liverpool reached the last eight of the EFL Cup after comfortable wins over Norwich City and Preston North End. They then played out a six-goal thriller with Leicester City in an Anfield quarter-final last month, going through 5-4 on penalties.
