The Londoners made a confident start to the Carabao Cup, securing two consecutive victories. First, they defeated Coventry City away (2-1), followed by a win against Manchester City by the same scoreline. The last time the London club reached the quarterfinal stage was in the 2021/22 season, when they advanced to the semifinals but lost to Chelsea over two legs (0-2 and 0-1).
Over the weekend, Spurs played an away match against Southampton and hammered the struggling side with five unanswered goals. This victory ended their five-game winless streak across all competitions. Currently, Tottenham sits in 10th place in the Premier League table, five points behind the top four.
Meanwhile, the Mancunians began their Carabao Cup campaign with impressive wins, thrashing Barnsley (7-0) and Leicester (5-2) at home. The team is on an impressive run, with nine victories in their last 10 matches in the competition. Their triumph in 2023, when they defeated Newcastle 2-0 in the final, marked a significant milestone in the club’s history.
Interestingly, Manchester-based clubs have dominated this tournament, winning 7 of the last 9 Carabao Cups: Manchester United claimed victory twice, while Manchester City lifted the trophy five times. Notably, over the weekend, United pulled off a dramatic 2-1 away win in the Manchester derby against City, scoring twice in the final minutes. The team is currently 13th in the Premier League, just three points away from the top six.
