⚽ EFL Carabao Cup 2025/26 Season

[Hypnotizer]

If Arsenal don't win,they would still qualify that is why Chelsea are shooting harder. Chelsea are more desperate for a goal while arsenal needed a goal to secure their victory. Arsenal defence is strong but I am not impressed because arsenal are somehow relaxed.The match is too tough, I don't think Chelsea will score. This game will end in a 0-0 draw and arsenal still has the advantage over chelsea.  

Arsenal were already leading on aggregate and even if they draw that game they’ll still qualify but that wonderful goal from Havertz in the stoppage time saw Arsenal now leading with 4 goals to 2 on aggregate and Arsenal are qualified for the Finals of the Carabao Cup.

The second half was kinda more intense because we saw some changes from both side, Chelsea Subbed in Palmer and Estêvão in the 60th minute and also Arsenal subbed in Havertz and Trossard subbing out Madueke and Gyökeres, that was a good substitution for Arsenal because Havertz scored the late winning goal to solidify their qualification for the finals and knock out Chelsea in the Semis.

Chelsea is very unfortunate to fail to beat Arsenal in the 2nd leg with a narrow score of 1-0 the score of 1-0 has brought Arsenal to the final I am amazed by arteta who can bring Arsenal to this stage and it must not be easy for arteta to make a strategy against Chelsea because Chelsea is a team that is difficult to beat. When betting I was confused because I thought the result of this match would be a draw but it turned out that Arsenal was very lucky because in the final minutes Havertz scored a goal against Chelsea and at that time apparently Chelsea was too focused on going forward so that Arsenal's counterattack was very difficult to block and unfortunately the Chelsea goalkeeper could not catch the ball. Arsenal fans look happy because Arsenal will advance to the final I see that this season Arsenal is very lucky because in any league he is still the strongest team now we will see whether Arsenal will finally win many trophies or not.

Congratulations to arsenal because on another day, it was a game they would have drawn or lost because Chelsea really gave them a good fight, and if not that Chelsea knew that they were losing on aggregate, so they were desperately in need of a goal, they wouldn't have attacked too much without paying attention to their backline that cost them the game at the dieing minutes.
Though I don't think that the 1-0 loss was fair on Chelsea since it's was an end to end game, and they shows very clearly that they are up there with the rest of the top teams, they were just unlucky and because they were in need of a goal, throwing more bodies forward was the cause of them conceding a goal in this game, but never the less, a big congratulation to arsenal for making it to the finals of the carabao cup.

Arsenal has now qualified to the final. It's going to be a tough final should Manchester city maintain their lead against Newcastle united. Arsenal appears to be in for a no joke season and making it to this final is an opportunity to claim one title for the season. Manchester city will be playing their second leg with Newcastle today and should the table turn, arsenal will be advantaged to play against Newcastle of which that will be the wish of every arsenal fan right now. But Manchester city is equal to the task and will still beat Newcastle today.

I don't think it will be easy for Arsenal in the final but this is a game of football, anything can happen. Let's just watch and enjoy the game while it lasts.

Congratulations to Arsenal as they're through to the carabao cup final. This is what we want to see. Tonight Manchester City faces Newcastle and all odds fall in favour of Manchester City to win since they got good advantage in the first leg. Liam Rosenior knows this by now that Arsenal defendlines was impenetrable. He would have started the necessary players, the same mistake he made in the first leg. Gunners deserves all three points because they got good attempts on goal but Chelsea defendlines was solid, the exact thing apply to Arsenal. Mikel Arteta know his stands and got an advantage already when they won Chelsea in the first leg.

It was a bit less exciting than a league match. Arsenal won 1-0 thanks to Havertz's last-minute goal and advanced to the next round. Chelsea conceded a counter-attack in the final minute, and Arsenal scored, the match ended immediately after the kickoff.

What I remember most from the match was that both teams were effective with corner kicks. Cucurella blocked a header that was going towards the goal with his head. Finally, Enzo Fernandez needs to work on his shooting. His shots would only be goals in American football. His shots are powerful but go well over the crossbar. He needs to improve his shooting.

Chelsea's lose is really understandable. They get so many pressure by losing aggregate. They also lose many of their main players due to lack of fitness before the start of the game. They were so screwed by losing Recee and Neto plus Estevao and Palmer not mentally ready for that game.
In term of gameplay, they were spot on by not conceding against the strongest team in EPL less than 60 minutes. However, their attacking players are so limited. Losing agg made them have no choice other than keep attacking Arsenal with the hope they could score at least one goal to equalize the aggregate.

Yet, Arsenal's defense was too good to break. So the lose is clearly acceptable for Chelsea as Arsenal did what they had to do. Hope Chelsea learns from their result today and move on.

I watched the match and I don't think Chelsea did much to win the game, it's a very boring match and I think the both teams were respectful of each other. I expected more from Chelsea,  because they were already already behind in the first leg and needed a win to even have a chance of qualifying,  but they were too careful and not willing to take risk, and that was comfortable for Arsenal.  How would Chelsea start 5 defenders and they want to win the game, that really poor on their side. Arsenal is definitely a better team, but Chelsea has nothing to lose, so they should have taken the risk to try and get a win. Congratulations to Arsenal anyways, they have now advanced to the final.

Enzo Fernandez had a direct shot on target which was saved by Arizabalaga, he had that particular well enough to make contact, but the rest weren't taken well enough. It is thanks to the Arsenal fullbacks who refused allowing Chelsea's fullback press them hard. Chelsea did well and Joao Pedro seems to have found a lot of confidence under this new manager. Unfortunately, the new manager Liams Unbeaten run comes to an end. 10 games unbeaten is what Arsenal has achieved in the last ten fixtures between themselves hopefully they go on to win the finals.

Arsenal are gradually pushing harder this season, right now they are sure to play in the Carabao Cup final and without any doubt Arsenal might likely be the winner this season. To be honest I think this season is particular made for Arsenal to recover what they have lost in the past season because they are just exploring in every league this season and if not for their mistakes in the premier league they would have secure that side with huge points gap but it's not too late because Manchester city have giving them more opportunity to get the trophy this season.

Well, as it turned out my predictions for the best betting options were right. Anyone who selected Arsenal to qualify has won. I bet on Arsenal to win or draw, and that scenario could have been real if not for Havertz’s goal in injury time near the end of the match. Chelsea, as expected, struggled badly, so the match wasn’t rich in goals. As for the fans, I’m one of them, and I hope my team will win in the final.

This is one of the best season for Arsenal in all competition they are performing well and have the opportunity to get into more finals if they keep the good performance going, they have secured the final ticket in this one and they still have the champions League and league title to keep chasing if they manage to extend their points against Manchester City they can as well win the league. Arsenal only needs to keep their good performance going they have lost a few points in the league but it should not affect their position in the league all they need now is to wait for either Newcastle or Manchester City in the finals if they are bawl to win the cup then they stand the chance to win two trophies.

Yes, chelsea certainly seems to be under heavy pressure. Following their 2-3 defeat in the first leg, they'll want to score as many goals as possible against Arsenal. Chelsea's desire to score has led to Chelsea's defensive slump in the final minutes. Now, Arsenal must be prepared to face a strong team in the final, and Arsenal will undoubtedly face Newcastle or Manchester City.

Later, we'll see the newcastle vs. Manchester City match. I think it'll be a very exciting match, as both manchester City and newcastle will want to win. However, I think Manchester City will play calmly in the match, as they won the first leg 2-0. So, I think Manchester City will win and advance to the final. It seems like many people will be betting on a manchester City victory, right?

[mandown]

It wouldn't be wrong to say Arsenal secured the victory in the final seconds. Havertz scored and the match was over.
Both teams had a majority of players who hadn't had much playing time in league matches. I'd say Chelsea fielded a near-ideal lineup.
The match wasn't very exciting. I don't remember any particular moment. Both teams try to score from corners, and corners are their main goal-scoring method.
That's the only thing I remember. Havertz scored and the match ended. And that moment. Apart from that, nothing else caught my attention.

The Premier League will always be Arteta's main focus so that this season does not end in failure like last season. The Carabao Cup, having already reached the final, will be a tournament that Arteta will not ignore.
Between Manchester City and Newcastle, I can confirm that the team Arsenal will face is Manchester City because, with Manchester City's 2-0 victory over Newcastle in the first leg, it is unlikely that Newcastle will be able to turn the situation around.

If the final on March 22 is confirmed with Manchester City advancing, it will be a clash between two great managers. Teacher vs. Student. That's how I describe the Carabao Cup final.

I agree, it was a terrible match. It wasn't enjoyable at all. Arsenal got what they wanted and advanced to the final. The Carabao Cup isn't a particularly popular cup, but since Arsenal reached the final, they'll want to win it.

Their opponent in the final will most likely be Manchester City. In the first leg, City beat Newcastle 0-2 away. They'll probably beat them again today. I think City will field a squad mostly composed of reserves.

In the EPL, in the UCL and in the EFL Carabao Arsenal seem to really want to win all competitions this season. In fact Chelsea have provided tight resistance but this time it was Kai Havertz as a former Chelsea player who broke into the net. His celebrations must have also infuriated Chelsea fans. But I appreciate the game because Chelsea already know how to thwart Arsenal corner kicks which are often Arteta mainstay to score goals. After qualifying for the final, it's just a matter of waiting to see who manages to get through between Man City or Newcastle. I hope Man City will qualify because the final will be much more exciting and hot atmosphere.

Wow guys …. You’re giving Chelsea to much credits, it is neither unfair or unfortunate, they played well but not enough. What you have to understand is that the Best team won. Arsenal has improved a lot and you can see it in how they play, there’s a desire to win even in games they were unfortunate to lose or draw, they gave a very good performance. A treble might be a possibility for this Arsenal team but a trophy is inevitable.

[Nahl]

If i am not mistaken the last time Arsenal got the trophy from this competition on 1993 which mean they were never got Carabao trophy again over than 30 years and after beat Chelsea they are very close to the trophy or probably the first trophy during this season although Carabao cup is 3rd tier competition in England i think won from this competition is still important and it will make Arsenal players are more confident however for other semifinal game between Manchester city vs Newcastle because in the first leg Manchester city have won 2-0 over Newcastle then i am sure this is easy game for them and in the final game it would be Arsenal vs Manchester city

I strongly believe that Arsenal would get it right this season because the way Manchester city are dropping points in the premier league shows that they are going to be the defending champion this season. Unless they are not ready for it if not the premier league road is pretty open for them to get the trophy because there is a high possiblity that Manchester city would still lose more games, their last matched against Tottenham Hotspur was a big sign that Manchester city it's not in good shape and there is a high possiblity that Newcastle united might likely give them tough time in this second leg.
