Arsenal vs Tottenham
Published By: Kazeem Ugbodaga
Premier League giants Arsenal and Liverpool face daunting challenges as they attempt to overturn first-leg deficits in their Carabao Cup semi-final clashes.
Both games are set to be broadcast live on GOtv.
Arsenal, trailing 2-0 from the first leg against Newcastle, must pull off a dramatic comeback at St. James’ Park on Wednesday to secure a spot in the Wembley final.
The Gunners have struggled in recent trips to Newcastle, losing three of their last four encounters, including a 1-0 league defeat earlier this season.
However, manager Mikel Arteta remains defiant, stating, “Nothing is impossible. We have to go there with the mindset to turn the tie.”
Meanwhile, defending champions Liverpool will host Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Thursday, aiming to overturn a 1-0 first-leg deficit.

The Reds boast an impressive home record against Spurs, winning four of their last five meetings at Anfield. With the dream of a historic quadruple still alive, Arne Slot’s men will look to capitalize on home advantage.
Liverpool’s emphatic 6-3 victory over Spurs in the league earlier this season suggests they have what it takes to stage a comeback.
Spurs, on the other hand, are desperate to end a 16-year trophy drought since their last Carabao Cup triumph in 2008.
Manager Ange Postecoglou, known for delivering silverware in his second season, will be keen to guide his side to the final.
The Liverpool vs. Spurs clash will be live on GOtv Channel 65 at 9 PM on Thursday.
