One final stop on the Road to Wembley…
Just two more games remain for the Carabao Cup champions to be crowned. With Chelsea waiting to find who they will be facing next month, the second finalist will be confirmed on Thursday night, when Arsenal will play hosts to Liverpool at the Emirates in the second leg of their semi-final.
The turn of the year has been tumultuous for Arsenal, with two of their games rescheduled due to the ridiculous waves of postponements affecting the Premier League. The Gunners are yet to clinch their maiden win in 2022, losing back-to-back games to start the new year before playing out a creditable goalless draw with Liverpool in the first leg last week.
Like Arsenal, Liverpool’s start to the new year has been anything but kind. But unlike their hosts, the Reds are yet to lose a game in 2022, winning two and drawing two of their four games thus far. The most recent of these fixtures ended in a 3-0 win over Brentford, a result that should buoy the visitors heading into the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg.
