Liverpool will play Fulham in the Carabao Cup semi-final, after beating West Ham in the quarter-final at Anfield on Wednesday night.

The Reds saw off West Ham with a comprehensive 5-1 victory, with Curtis Jones scoring two and Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah also on the scoresheet.

Earning a place in the semi-final draw, Jurgen Klopp‘s side were drawn against Fulham.

Liverpool are home in the first leg (January 9/10), before heading to Craven Cottage for the decider (January 23/24).

Marco Silva’s side qualified for the semi-final the night before, beating Everton on penalties after a 1-1 draw.

The other tie will see Chelsea face Middlesbrough.

 

When are the semi finals?

The first leg arrives shortly after the FA Cup third-round trip to Arsenal in early January and disrupts what should have been Liverpool’s mini winter break, with no match the following weekend (Jan 13/14).

The second leg precedes what could be a FA Cup fourth-round tie should Liverpool progress past Arsenal, and follows on from an away trip to Bournemouth in the Premier League.

First Leg: January 9/10

Second Leg: January 23/24

Liverpool will be without both Mo Salah (Africa Cup of Nations) and Wataru Endo (Asia Cup) for the two semi-final ties.

 

And the final?

The final takes place at Wembley on February 25.

Liverpool last played in the final in 2022, winning on penalties against Chelsea after a 0-0 draw.
