Capital One Cup: Arsenal to face Chelsea in fourth round
Arsenal will play at home against Chelsea in the most interesting tie of the fourth round of the Capital One Cup. The Gunners had a very tough match in the third round as they needed a penalty shoot-out to overcome West Brom on Wednesday. Manchester United's defeated eight-time winners Liverpool 1-0 and will face Norwich at home in the next round, while Newcastle take on Manchester City. Birmingham City knocked out holders Swansea in the biggest upset of the third round and will face Premier League side Stoke in the last 16. Tottenham take on Hull while Sunderland meet Southampton in two more all-Premier League ties. Championship side Burnley host West Ham while Martin Jol's Fulham travel to Leicester. Arsenal, who have not won the League Cup since 1993, were runners-up to Chelsea in the 2007 final. Chelsea have won the trophy in 2005, the first piece of silverware for Mourinho during his first spell in charge of the Blues. Manchester United reached the fourth round thanks to a Javier Hernandez strike early in the second half at Old Trafford. Manager David Moyes said he was pleased to be drawn at home again, but he doesn't expect an easy match against Norwich. "They are a good side, they have got a good manager and we will give them every respect," he said. The fourth round matches will be played on 29 or 30 October. Until then, let's see the outright win odds at Bet365 for the top five Capital One Cup favourites: Manchester United - 4/1 Manchester City - 5/1 Tottenham - 5/1 Chelsea - 7/1 Arsenal - 7/1
