Manchester United will face Nottingham Forest in the EFL Cup semi-finals, while Newcastle United meet Southampton.
Erik ten Hag’s side beat third-tier Charlton Athletic 3-0 in the last eight and will travel to the City Ground for the first of the two-legged semi-final clash, as United search for a first trophy since 2017.
Forest have struggled in the Premier League as they battle to avoid the drop but edged past rivals Wolves on penalties after a 1-1 draw on Wednesday, moving just two games away from the Wembley Stadium showpiece.
Newcastle were dominant in a 2-0 win over Leicester City to reach the competition’s semi-finals for the first time since 1976 and will visit the Premier League’s bottom side Southampton for the first leg.
Nathan Jones’ side registered an unlikely 2-0 quarter-final win over Manchester City, becoming just the third side to defeat Pep Guardiola’s City in the EFL Cup, after West Ham and Manchester United (twice).
