Chelsea v Newcastle United: Carabao Cup quarter-final – live

There are two other League Cup quarter-finals being played tonight. Marco Silva returns to Goodison Park with his Fulham side to take on in-form Everton … and it’s been a fair old while since we’ve been able to string those three words together. Everton have never won this competition, but with true Dychean determination, they’ve turned into one of the hottest teams in the land since being handed that ten-point deduction, so perhaps this is their time.

The other tie features the only two non-Premier League teams left in the pot. Port Vale of League One are playing in their first-ever League Cup quarter-final. They host Championship promotion hopefuls Middlesbrough, who lifted this trophy on 2003. Both games kick off at 7.45pm. I’ll try to keep you posted as much as I can, in an ersatz Clockwatch style. Here are the teams …
