League Cup: Spurs Away

It’s a perfect draw in my opinion: West Ham, who knocked out holders Manchester City in round four, face last year’s beaten finalists Tottenham in the quarter finals.
Last time the Hammers played Spurs in the League Cup in October 2017, they could celebrate a famous 3:2 win at Wembley and also reached the quarter finals. Coming from 0:2 behind at half time, they scored three second half goals through Andre Ayew (2) and Ogbonna. But this result was only a short relief for then manager Slaven Bilic, who had to step down as manager because of a very bad run in the Premier League.
On 7 November, David Moyes was appointed manager on a six-month contract. West Ham were eighteenth in the Premier Division at the time on nine points having played eleven games.In the next round of the Carabao Cup they were eliminated by Arsenal (0:1).
This season Arsenal will host Sunderland, the only EFL club left in the competition,. They have to travel to Emirates Stadium, while Premier League leaders Chelsea take on west London rivals Brentford, and Liverpool face Leicester.
The games will be played in the week of 20 December.
