Chelsea will meet either Arsenal or Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup semifinals in early 2026, with Manchester City standing between holders Newcastle United and a return to Wembley Stadium.
The draw took place after the conclusion of Newcastle’s last-gasp quarterfinal triumph over Fulham at St James’s Park—the holders booked their place in the next round courtesy of a stoppage time-winner from home-grown youngster Lewis Miley.
