West Ham vs Tottenham – Carabao Cup LIVE: Latest score and updates as Son Heung-min puts Spurs ahead



[ad_1]

West Ham face Tottenham in the fourth round of the EFL Cup.

The match comes just two days after Tottenham’s lacklustre defeat to Manchester City at Wembley and Mauricio Pochettino has stated that he will not risk first team players with another Premier League fixture to come on Saturday. West Ham will hope to take advantage after a slump of form has seen the Hammers lose momentum and take just one point from their last three games. 

We will have all the latest throughout the evening in our live blog.

Chelsea score this time courtesy of a beautiful finish by Cesc Fabregas. Fabregas plays the ball into the box and Willian flicks it trying to find Zappacosta on the overlap.

Chelsea vs Derby

 

26 mins: Chelsea 2 – 2 Derby – Waghorn 

 

The last time Frank Lampard faced Derby at Stamford Bridge he scored 4 goals for Chelsea. Tonight his Derby side has scored 4 goals, sadly they’ve gifted two of them to Chelsea.

 

Another equaliser for Derby, they win a couple of throw ins on the left wing before Mason Mount finds some space to deliver a low cross in front of goal. It beats all the defenders and Waghorn meets it at the far post for an easy tap in.

Chelsea vs Derby

 

16 mins: Chelsea 1 – 1 Derby

 

Waghorn gets away from Christensen and he’s in on goal, the ball gets stuck under his feet and he finds no power with the shot, Caballero making an easy save in the end. Derby should be in front that was a golden chance!



West Ham vs Tottenham

 

12 mins: West Ham 0 – 0 Tottenham

 

Christian Eriksen has a left footed shot from the centre of the box saved by Adrian, it was a good chance to put Spurs one up at the London Stadium but the scores remain level.

GOAL!



Chelsea vs Derby

 

8 mins: Chelsea 1 – 1 Derby – Marriott

 

Derby are level! Jack Marriott has four goals in five games for Derby as he scores the equaliser. Cahill makes a series of errors, first by giving the ball to Huddlestone with a wayward pass and then he slips when defending the vital pass through to Marriott leaving the Derby man with a difficult sight on goal but he delivers nonetheless. 

GOAL!



Chelsea vs Derby

 

5 mins: Chelsea 1 – 0 Derby – Tomori OG

 

It’s a shocker for Chelsea loanee Tomori. Zappacosta puts a timid cross into the box and Tomori makes a mess of his intended clearance missing the ball with his left foot as it deflects off his standing leg and goes into the corner of the goal. 



Chelsea vs Derby

 

In a nice touch there was a minute’s applause before kick-off in memory of the five people who died in the helicopter crash at Leicester City last week.

KICK OFF



We’re underway!

 

Chelsea 0 – 0 Derby

 

Arsenal 0 – 0 Blackpool

 

West Ham 0 – 0 Tottenham

 

Remember Middlesbrough vs Crystal Palace kicks off at 8pm

 



West Ham vs Tottenham

 

Based on Spurs’ last match against Manchester City, I think this is unlikely… there’s always hope though 



Chelsea vs Derby

 

Who remembers this stunner from Derby’s third round victory over Manchester United? Another one of these tonight could throw the cat amongst the pigeons… 



Middlesbrough vs Crystal Palace

 

The facts make for interesting reading in this match up between North and South.

 

Middlesbrough have lost their last three matches against Crystal Palace, all of them in the league with the most recent coming in the 2016/17 Premier League season.

 

Palace also won the League Cup match up between the sides, in September 2011, winning 2-1 at Selhurst Park.

 

However they have reached the League Cup quarter-final just once in their last 15 attempts, doing so in 2011/12.

 

Roy Hodgson also has a poor record against Middlesbrough at the Riverside Stadium, he was never won there in three previous attempts, drawing once and losing twice.



West Ham vs Tottenham

 

This is the second year running in which West Ham have faced Tottenham in the Carabao Cup fourth round. 

 

Last time they came from 2-0 behind to win 3-2 at Wembley. Have they got a repeat performance in store tonight?

What are the odds?

West Ham 9/5

Tottenham 7/5

Draw 5/2

Who’s going to win?

Tottenham 2-1: The Hammers will certainly have a strong chance of pulling off the upset, however, in potentially his last season with Spurs, Pochettino will be desperate to win silverware in England and will force the best from his young side.
