ARSENAL will host Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Carling Cup. And in another mouth-watering clash, Chelsea meet Liverpool at Stamford Bridge. Blackburn's reward for their dramatic extra-time win over Newcastle in the fourth round is an away tie at Cardiff. Manchester United have the easiest-looking draw on paper, with Alex Ferguson's side at home against another Championship side, Crystal Palace. If United progress, it means they will have reached the semi-finals without having to play a top-flight side. The ties are to be played the week beginning November 28. Carling Cup quarter-final round draw: Arsenal v Manchester City, Chelsea v Liverpool, Manchester United v Crystal Palace, Cardiff v Blackburn.
