Chelsea vs Arsenal LIVE: Carabao Cup latest score and goal updates

Chelsea and Arsenal meet in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final showdown at Stamford Bridge tonight.

Liam Rosenior had a relatively comfortable start to life as the Blues boss against Charlton in the FA Cup but this evening will give us a chance to see what he is really made of.

Chelsea more than held their own in this fixture in the Premier League in November on a night where Moises Caicedo was sent off. The midfielder is serving another suspension tonight.
