Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur could meet in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup
According to The Sun, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are on a collision course to meet in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.
This will come true if we bring out the best in Barnsley and the Spurs defeat Leyton Orient in the third round.
The potential draw will see two teams that have had excellent summer windows. In many ways, it could be a game worth seeing if both managers decide to take it seriously.
Chelsea and Spurs have met twice in the final of the competition. The Spurs beat us in 2008 while we repaid them in 2015.
Both clubs have won the competition a total of nine times. Chelsea has lifted the EFL trophy five times and our last win was in 2015.
The clash will also see former Chelsea manager José Mourinho return to the Bridge. Frank Lampard led the Blues to a double over the Spurs last season when the apprentice showed the master.
However, the Portuguese won the competition four times, three with Chelsea and once with Manchester United. This puts him at the top along with Sir Alex Ferguson and Brian Clough. Another victory will see him part ways as the most successful coach in the competition.
Hopefully we can prevent Lampard from writing his name in the history books.
The other possible appetizing draw of the round is Arsenal vs Liverpool. Both teams met in the same round last season. In a thoroughly exciting game, Liverpool prevailed on penalties after the match ended 5-5.

While the Carabao Cup is considered the least desirable of all trophies, at the end of the day it is an honor.
Furthermore, it will also be the first grand finale to be played of the season. Going to the end will surely give us the momentum to continue and finish the season on top.
