Two London-based teams are vying for a spot in the Carabao Cup semi-finals this evening as Arsenal entertain Crystal Palace.Tonight’s game is the first part of a doubleheader between the two sides

Arsenal host Crystal Palace in the last eight of the Carabao Cup.

A piece of silverware that has long eluded both of these sides glitters in the distance as Arsenal prepare to welcome Crystal Palace to the Emirates Stadium for Wednesday's EFL Cup quarterfinal. The Eagles have never so much as reached the final of this competition -- this is their first berth in the last eight since 2002-03 -- while plenty of Arsenal fans will never have seen their side lift a trophy they last won in 1993.
