It is indeed penalties at Anfield. It finishes 1-1 after spot-kicks from Morgan Rogers and Cody Gakpo at either end.

We've had two home wins in the other shootouts so far this round, for Fleetwood Town and Manchester City.

Will we get a third home winner or will Xabi Alonso and Jordan Henderson haunt their former club?

Let's find out...

Should we get a late winner at Anfield, the draw should take place at around 10.20pm.

But as we said earlier, it will be delayed if Liverpool and Chelsea require a penalty shootout.

We won't get it until at least 10.30pm in that scenario. Probably nearer to 10.40pm.

Four of tonight's matches are now complete.

FT: Man City 2-2 Brighton (City win 4-3 on penalties)

FT: Bournemouth 3-0 Aston Villa

FT: Fulham 0-1 Crystal Palace

FT: Sunderland 3-2 Brentford

In the only game still being played, Liverpool and Chelsea are drawing 1-1 at Anfield with a little over 10 minutes remaining.

We could be set for a second shootout of the night on Merseyside!

Several perfect penalties at the Etihad - until they're not.

Mateo Kovacic, who made it 1-1 earlier in the night, sees his spot-kick saved by Jason Steele.

But Geronimo Rulli saves from Yasin Ayari immediately after.

Rayan Cherki scores City's fifth, before Rulli saves from Lewis Dunk and the home side win the shootout 4-3.

The holders are into the quarter-finals!

It's penalties at the Etihad!

Man City draw 2-2 with Brighton and a shootout will now decide who reaches the last eight.

The other live scores are...

81 mins: Bournemouth 3-0 Aston Villa

80 mins: Fulham 0-1 Crystal Palace

80 mins: Sunderland 3-1 Brentford

63 mins: Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea

It looks pretty safe to say Bournemouth are in the next round!

They lead Aston Villa 3-0 now thanks to Alvaro Rodriguez.

The Cherries haven't reached the quarter-finals since the 2018-19 season.

We've got another equaliser over at the Etihad.

Vitor Reis has his first City goal after a deflected Rayan Cherki free-kick finds the net courtesy of the underside of Reis' boot in the 72nd minute.

Can either team score a winner or will we have another penalty shootout?

Wow. Liverpool scorer Cody Gakpo now has 11 goals in just 13 Carabao Cup appearances!

Elsewhere, Bournemouth have just doubled their lead over Aston Villa.

The Cherries are another club that have not yet won a major trophy.

So then, if these scores stay as they are, here's how we'll look for the draw at 10.20pm:

1. Bournemouth

2. Bradford City

3. Everton or Newcastle

4. Fleetwood Town

5. Crystal Palace

6. Liverpool or Chelsea

7. Brighton & Hove Albion

8. Sunderland

What drama at Anfield! Now it's a penalty at the other end to Liverpool.

From a corner, the ball hits the outstretched arm of Wesley Fofana.

Cody Gakpo steps up and beats Mike Penders in front of the Kop and it's 1-1.

And the deadlock is broken at Anfield.

Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch fouls Moises Caicedo inside the box to hand Chelsea a penalty.

Up steps Morgan Rogers, and he sends Giorgi Mamardashvili the wrong way to put the Blues in front.

The net is rippling again at the Etihad.

Just two minutes into the second half, Georginio Rutter puts Brighton 2-1 up in front of a jubilant away end.

HT: Man City 1-1 Brighton

HT: Bournemouth 1-0 Aston Villa

HT: Fulham 0-1 Crystal Palace

HT: Sunderland 3-1 Brentford

33 mins: Liverpool 0-0 Chelsea

Two quickfire goals at the Stadium of Light have Sunderland 2-0 up on Brentford.

The Black Cats haven't won a cup since 1973 but look good for a place in the last eight as it stands.

Ladies and gentlemen, we might have another upset on the cards.

A much-changed Brighton are currently beating a much-changed Brighton 1-0 at the Etihad.

Malick Yalcouye puts the Seagulls in front after half an hour.

It wouldn't be as big a shock as last night, when Fleetwood beat Arsenal, because Brighton are brilliant.

But it's still not often City lose at the Etihad and they are the current holders of the trophy remember!

We have our first goal of the night!

Amine Adli puts Bournemouth 1-0 up against Aston Villa after only seven minutes.

The clash between Liverpool and Chelsea will get underway at Anfield soon too.

We're underway in four of tonight's five matches!

Man City are still goalless against Brighton after 17 minutes of their match.

The two teams also meet at the same stadium in the Premier League on Saturday.

And the games at Craven Cottage, the Vitality Stadium and the Stadium of Light have also all kicked off.

We've got used to familiar winners in the Carabao Cup.

Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United have won this trophy 11 times since 2014.

The only exceptions were Chelsea in 2015 and Newcastle in 2025.

How the likes of Villa, Everton, Fulham and Brighton would desperately love to win this cup.

Villa haven't lifted a domestic cup since 1996, Everton are trophyless since 1995 while Brighton and Fulham have NEVER won the League Cup or FA Cup.

Watch out, Liverpool.

Chelsea boss Xabi Alonso has said he will celebrate if the Blues score against his old club at Anfield tonight.

The Spaniard, 44, returns for the first time since becoming Chelsea manager.

He has lost on both of his previous two trips with Real Madrid (1-0) and Bayer Leverkusen (2-0).

He said...

Former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson starts in the Chelsea midfield tonight too.

Tonight, we're guaranteed to lose another member of the big six - with either Liverpool or Chelsea dipping out of the Carabao Cup.

And we'll lose two of the Premier League's most in-form teams too, with Man City playing Brighton.

Arsenal, of course, were eliminated last night while Manchester United and Tottenham crashed out in round three.

Could we be in line for a surprise winner this season?

One bit of non-draw Carabao Cup news to bring you.

After his red card last night, Arsenal have decided they WILL launch an appeal to try and have Max Dowman available against Liverpool in the Premier League this Sunday.

The 16-year-old midfielder was dismissed after his reaction to a strong challenge from Fleetwood's Harrison Neal.

Dowman stands to face a three-match suspension and miss Arsenal's trip to Anfield this weekend unless their appeal is a success.

1. Bournemouth or Aston Villa

2. Bradford City

3. Everton or Newcastle

4. Fleetwood Town

5. Fulham or Crystal Palace

6. Liverpool or Chelsea

7. Manchester City or Brighton

8. Sunderland or Brentford

So. The big question: what time is tonight's draw?

Well, here's the kicker. It's not until after Liverpool vs Chelsea finishes.

Should that match be decided within 90 minutes, we can expect the draw to begin at about 10.25pm.

Should it go to penalties, you can expect to wait until nearer to 10.45pm.

All eyes on Anfield, then.

I know what you're thinking. 'But that leaves one more match?'

Yep, the final match of the fourth round takes place tomorrow night at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

It's another all-Premier League contest as Everton host Newcastle United.

While we've had two results already confirmed, we've still got another five of the remaining six ties to be played tonight.

7.30pm: Man City vs Brighton

7.45pm: Fulham vs Crystal Palace

7.45pm: Bournemouth vs Aston Villa

7.45pm: Sunderland vs Brentford

8pm: Liverpool vs Chelsea

Five all-Premier League match-ups!

So far, we've had two confirmed results in this round of the Carabao Cup.

Both matches were played last night...

Bradford City 2-0 Peterborough United 

Fleetwood Town 1-1 Arsenal (5-3 on penalties)

That means we'll have a League One team AND a League Two team in tonight's draw. How fun!
